"Graff and Van Wyk have provided a book which will teach
generations the basic principles in designing and writing software code ready
for the Internet and its threats. I am reminded of an old saying, "give a
man a fish and feed him for a day; teach a man to fish and feed him for a
lifetime." Basic secure coding practices are not a cut, copy, and paste
exercise but, a process with defined fundamentals and principles, that
practiced, will result in less security vulnerable software. Professionals
have been waiting years for this book; a must read."
--- Mike Higgins, VP, Global Security Practice, Tekmark Global Services and
former CEO, Para-Protect Services
