Subject: Re: Oracle Security Blasted
I really had better caveat this by saying that although I live in the UK and have a similar name, I have no connection to David Litchfield (at least none I am aware of - it seems likely that we are at least distantly related).

The comments from David Litcfield are very valid, if somewhat humorous. The one that I have in mind is:
"Push your vendor to tell you how they build their software and ask them if they train people on secure coding practices. "
With aforementioned outsourcing to Elbonia (a swampy country populated by
small, bearded
men wearing coned hats, resembling recent pictures from New Orleans) such a
comment is a
joke. What do you think they outsourced for? They outsourced to save money.
They are not
going to train them, that would cut into the bottom line.
