Abstract

Insufficiently tested software releases provoque a competition between 'exploiters' versus 'patchers'. Developing secure software from scratch greatly reduces maintenance effort. The integration of regular security checks combined with patch proposals at development time enhances the system's usability and software quality. This paper presents a software development system including version control, security analysis and patching support. As a practical aspect, avoiding flaws becomes easier even for non security experts.
