In Cyberwar, Software Flaws Are A Hot Commodity

In Cyberwar, Software Flaws Are A Hot Commodity by Tom Gjelten.

Morning Edition ran a story today on firms that are finding software flaws and then selling them to the highest bidder.

A market that has exploded in the last two years.

If there is a market for the latest and greatest flaws, doesn’t the same exist for flaws in older software that hasn’t been upgraded?

Flaws that are “out there” and known, but scattered over email lists, web pages, blog posts, conference proceedings.

But not collated, verified and packaged together.

Just curious.
