Book Reviews of 19 Deadly Sins of Software Security (Security One-off)

Book Review: Excellent overview of an important topic
Summary: 5 Stars

This is a very good book for software developers that are concerned about
software security. It is short enough and easy enough to follow that it
might also be a good book for software developers that are not concerned
about software security but should be. Last year I reviewed Seacord's
"Secure Coding in C and C++" and claimed it was "The best how-to security
book" I had seen. This one might be even better. It is almost as thorough
in the areas the two have in common, and has more material about the proper
use of third party security packages. There are extensive references to
books and papers about exploits and defenses, and pointers to many web
sites with additional and more detailed information. Highly recommended.
