Secure Programming

viega writes "Matt Messier and I have just launched a secure programming web site. While this site does support our new book The Secure Programming Cookbook for C and C++ , it also serves as a thorough resource for developers. It has numerous links to articles and other topical resources, new recipes that demonstrate secure programming techniques a large glossary and the obligatory web log. We accept outside submissions, and will reward the best recipe submission each month-- O'Reilly will publish it on the O'Reilly Network web site and will give the author a free book. There's already a decent amount of new content, including recipes on avoiding malloc()/new-related integer overflows, watching out for security problems in API differences and issues when truncating data. There's also an RSS feed for the web log."

I blame colleges

[Amsterdam Vallon]

These degrees are handed out like toilet paper these days.

Let's teach future American programmers proper security before they graduate and start writing professional software.

There's no excuse for the fact that in order to write good, clean, secure code, our youngsters have to visit websites like secureprogramming.com in order to just get by.

What a disgrace.
