BLACK HAT - Apps security to dominate show

,----[ Quote ]
| As threats have evolved and hackers have broadened their focus on finding and 
| exploiting vulnerabilities -- as opposed to focusing almost solely on 
| Microsoft's Windows platform in years past -- the 2007 Black Hat briefings 
| schedule is weighted heavily toward applications security.   
| 
| At least four scheduled sessions specifically highlight Windows flaws and 
| other Microsoft-based hacks on botnets, and other so-called mass market 
| threats that are designed to take advantage of consumers and other 
| unsuspecting Web users.    
| 
| [...]
| 
| Among browser hacks, always a hot topic at the conference, Cenzic reported 
| that 33 percent of the flaws were found in Microsoft's Internet Explorer, 
| followed by Mozilla's Firefox at 26 percent, and Opera at 21 percent.
