New Year's greetings, SC-Lers,
FYI, here's an interesting article about the application security
testing space, from eWeek.
http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,1759,2242973,00.asp?kc=EWRSS03119TX1K594
The author sort of compares apples and oranges a bit, IMHO, in
comparing recent acquisitions of security testing product firms (e.g.,
SPI and WatchFire) with potential future acquisitions of source code
analysis tool companies, but it's still worth a quick read. The good
news in the article is, "The acquisitions, coupled with an increase in
the number of providers offering vulnerability assessments, are
indicators of a growing emphasis on increasing security in the
development process."
Cheers,
Ken
