WASHINGTON --(Business Wire)-- Nov. 8, 2004 -- Secure Software announces the availability of CodeAssure(TM), a product suite for software developers and security professionals to pre-emptively find, prioritize and fix security flaws before they result in catastrophic breaches. Security flaws and errors found in software are responsible for the exploits that lead to identity theft, unauthorized funds transfer, and fraud, costing the U.S. economy $59.5 billion per year (NIST estimate).

The greatest challenge and greatest opportunity for Cyber Security

Amit Yoran, former Director of the National Cyber Security Division stated, "The greatest challenge in cyber security exists in retrofitting security solutions on top of fundamentally flawed applications, protocols and platforms. And the greatest opportunity for improving our technology infrastructures exists in improving the quality and security of our software systems and applications. This must be done in both the technology development and security evaluation processes. Innovative and automated technologies and solutions, like those being developed by Secure Software, are pioneering ways to help companies develop more secure technology in house and better evaluate the security of those solutions they are procuring."
