The Security Mentor

A publication for Chief Security Officers just ran an article about companies that use security as a selling point for their products or services.

Check out the whole article, it's interesting, but I especially noticed this quote:

In fact, says [Microsoft] Chief Security Strategist Scott Charney, who describes the [Trustworthy Computing] initiative as "very much a work in progress," Microsoft has had to apply strong-arm tactics to software vendors who have built Microsoft technologies into their products: They are not to make claims that aren't yet matched by the reality that Gates wants to see. "We've told vendors not to put out advertisements saying that you can have a secure environment on a Microsoft platform, because we're just not there yet," says Charney.
