I found this article in a BCS security news letter that I received in my inbox this morning.
It provides an interesting angle on the testing (checking) of web applications, as even a seemingly trivial deployment may be exploited as part of a system attack.
I was sent this link this week by fellow Test Architect, Alasdair Paton.
Dangerous coding errors revealed
25 of the most dangerous bugs in software as defined by the US National Security Agency (NSA). The question Alasdair posed was how many of these had I found? I also wondered how many we actually go looking for?
I could see about 6 or 7 that we see regularly and actively look for.
Thoughts?
