+A description of the work done in 3.3 to prevent buffer overflow attacks. +The editors speak strongly in favor of the team's efforts +in producing reliable, bug-free software; +quoting two of them: +
(Ranum): It's GREAT to see that at least a few people are smart enough +to try to attack problems like this systemically, rather than keeping +stuck in the fruitless "penetrate and patch" while loop. This is how +to make progress in security: fundamental protections. +
(Shpantzer): Initiatives like this should be taught as case studies +in computer science courses at the undergraduate level. +
