Where Does Secure Coding Belong In the Curriculum?

Not so much anti-social as untrusting, supicious, and paranoid. Actually, being highly social could provide an 
excellent "cover" to fool the bad guys into thinking one is a lot less security-savvy than one actually is.

Subject: [SC-L] Where Does Secure Coding Belong In the Curriculum?

There are several perspectives missing from the dialog:

- Before we even talk about secure coding, we need a course on secure
thinking. Most folks are indoctrinated into thinking positive which
blinds them from seeing vulnerabilities right in front of them. A prereq
on being antisocial might be a good start
