Abstract
Twenty years from now there will still be software security-enhanced applications vulnerable to buffer overflow problems. These products should not be called secure, but will be sold as such. Twenty years from now there will still be security-enhanced operating systems that will crash when applications misbehave. They will not be secure either. The author considers how we will have sufficient functionality, plenty of performance, but not enough assurance.
