LinuxSecurity.com: The Scan Report on Open Source Software 2008 by vendor Coverity has found the number of defective lines of code in open source software has decreased in the past two years. According to Coverity, which analyses open source software as part of the US Department of Homeland Security's open source software hardening project, fewer lines of defective code means the overall quality and security of the software is improving. This report makes the point that open source security is definitely something to look at. I am glad to see that the open source community is getting attention of it's strength in security.
