Rather, security needs to be integrated and designed in.  Risks need
to be investigated, understood and documented from the outset and
mitigated where necessary.  However, this doens't address the problem
of "software bugs" so we need to find ways to manage that.  Isolating
the execution environment (this includes disk as well as memory) of
something considered risky - e.g. any web browers - is something to
think about and can be achieved, in part, on all unixes today, albeit
.the browser may lose some usefullness.  So we need to do a better job
of achieving that.  As with the web, so too with any popular technology

We should think about ways in which we can achieve better security and
functionality, at the same time, without tradeoffs and look at how we
can develop solutions to achieve this.

Honestly Darren, who is "chest beating", "old hat" and "stale" now?
