You know, Skapare, even Kernighan and Ritchie admit that C has serious security problems. I've talked to them both about it. As for C++, it is a complete dog of a language that would be best stricken from the planet.

Probably the best book on security for builders to read is "Security Engineering" by Ross Anderson,

I happen to think that "Software Security" is good too. Then again, I wrote it.
