My slogan: Unsecured Applications = Unsecured Business -----Original Message----- From: sc-l-bounces at securecoding.org [mailto:sc-l-bounces at securecoding.org] On Behalf Of Jeremy Epstein Sent: Monday, July 17, 2006 8:46 AM To: Secure Coding Mailing List Subject: Re: [SC-L] "Bumper sticker" definition of secure software I like the idea of a bumper sticker slogan for the same reason as "elevator pitches" are useful - they don't cover everything, and they don't try to be precise - just give enough information to whet the reader's/listener's appetite. And with that, I offer the following: "Software Security Keeps the Bad Guys Out" No, it's not precise - it doesn't define bad guys, doesn't say anything about intent, etc. But it's something people (even CEOs) can understand, and it provides the motivation for a potential purchaser of software security technology. --Jeremy _______________________________________________ Secure Coding mailing list (SC-L) SC-L at securecoding.org List information, subscriptions, etc - http://krvw.com/mailman/listinfo/sc-l List charter available at - http://www.securecoding.org/list/charter.php
