Darkreading: software security and the law

[gem at cigital.com (Gary McGraw)]

Hi sc-l,

The law has almost always lagged behind when it comes to omputer security, but given current approaches to software 
architecture and software security, things seem to be further behind than ever.  I wrote about that in my latest 
darkreading column:

If you break a software system by meddling with code running on your own PC, is that illegal?
