Thanks
Note the date on those posts, it was in 2009. Unfortunately IBM is still quite far away from that. I think it will take a big event for them to really change.
Meanwhile, this is the kind of analysis that I hoped we would be doing by now using their technology (diniscruz.blogspot.com/2011/07/finally-here-is-how-i-have-been.html)
Hi Dinis,
IBM invests quite much on tools (Appscan, Ounce-Lab, database firewalls etc.). But the biggest problem is developers. They are not really trained about secure coding. IBM needs to take this issue seriously into consideration. IBM can interact with OWASP more, for example. I am saying all these as a former IBMer.
