The folks at MITRE deal with software security as their entire livelihood, and they have a good vantage point to understand this kind of thing. Here’s a good article that doesn’t say anything novel, but it says it all very well and in one place. queue.acm.org/detail.cfm?i...

I built a little empire out of some crazy garbage
called the blood of the exploited working class. But they've overcome their shyness now; they're calling me "Your Highness," and the world screams "Kiss me, Son of God."
