Oracle CSO Mary Ann Davidson has this modest proposal

Computerworld "No, You Really Can't"

 computerworld.com/article/2969844 

Oracle's chief security officer, Mary Ann Davidson would like to get rid of all the reverse-engineering security "weenies." She wants you to know that static analysis is Oracle's job, not yours, and that looking for security vulnerabilities in this way breaks the license agreement.

 

At which point, the Internet exploded. Soon after, the blog post in which she gave Oracle's position on this point was deleted.

 

I actually feel sorry for Mary Ann -- there was in fact an interesting point in her blog post, but unfortunately, it was buried inside paragraphs of vitriol.

 

In #ITBW, bloggers break out the popcorn.
