FYI, somewhat interesting story today on ZDNet (see http://news.zdnet.com/2100-1009_22-5697133.html?tag=st.prev) about operating system makers paying more attention to security. Note the differing (public) statements by Microsoft and Apple... Being fundamentally a "glass half full" sort of person, I think that it's refreshing to hear that OS vendors are making their products' security a higher priority than it's typically been in the past. There's also an implicit message here regarding a proactive software security posture vs. "firewall and IDS it" after the product is released.
