....depend. Commercial software vendors are still writing and releasing software needing patches for bugs that were well known as security problems over 20 years ago 4 Even when highly publicized problems occur, such as the buffer overflow problem exploited by the 1988 Morris Internet Worm [10, 11], or the year 2000 date problem, those same software faults continue to be incorporated into new operating systems and applications. Systems continue to be built using techniques known to be unsafe. Why aren t these problems avoided Why is it that our students do not learn better security ....
....has already made progress in each of these areas. The following text details a few significant results. Since 1987, COAST faculty and students have been exploring issues in practical computer security. Their work has included widely cited work in analysis of malicious code including viruses (e.g. [11, 10, 12, 13, 14]) In 1991, COAST director Gene Spafford coauthored the award winning book Practical UNIX and Internet Security[17] now considered the standard reference in the field. He has also been involved in work on static audit and analysis tools. An initial result of this work was the COPS[5] security ....
