A recent study called buffer overflows the most common security problem.
• And the enormous need for digital security products necessitates an enormous need for people to design, develop and implement them. ...
• Most products that use security are not designed by anyone with security expertise. Even security-specific products are generally designed and implemented by people who have only limited security expertise. Security cannot be functionality-tested-no amount of beta testing will uncover security flaws--so the flaws end up in fielded products.

• I am Chief Technical Officer of Counterpane Internet Security, Inc. , a company I founded in 1993 to address the critical need for strong, cost-effective, and resilient network security. From 1993 to 1999, I was President of Counterpane Systems, a cryptography and security consulting company. In that capacity, I have advised sophisticated clients such as Microsoft, Citibank, and the National Security Agency on information security products and markets. ...
• I have taught technical and business courses related to the fields of cryptography and computer security at a variety of technical conferences since 1993. ...
• In October 2000 I published the book "Secrets & Lies: Digital Security in a Networked World," which has already sold over 70,000 copies. ...
• I regularly present papers at international conferences and am a frequent writer, contributing editor, and lecturer on the topics of cryptography, computer security, and privacy. ...
• The disciplines of cryptography and computer security are offshoots of mathematics and computer science, which in itself is an offshoot of engineering, and is a scientific field in its own right. Universities offer degree programs in cryptography and computer security, which are deeply intertwined fields; for simplicity I will refer to both in this declaration as “security”. ...
• There are dozens of annual academic conferences in security. ...
• Unlike many academic disciplines, security is inherently adversarial. Researchers who invent security systems are always competing with those who break security systems. Due to the nature of how security works, it is impossible to categorically state that a security system is secure. ... Despite not being able to prove security, it is quite possible to definitively show insecurity, by explaining how to break a system, or by publicly demonstrating one's ability to do so. Since the presence of a negative result (break-in) shows that a security system is insecure, security can only be demonstrated by the lack of such results. ...
