Thanks for the doc, it's interesting. However it complains mostly about Skype being opaque from an admin point of view.
I don't buy your view on software security (I know it is the prevalent one). I don't crash-test my Volvo in order to ensure it is (relatively) safe, I rely on public mechanisms for this: I trust the manufacturer to live up to his promises (or suffer reputation damage, lawsuis, etc) and NCAP tests as an objective external measure.
It's a pity an equivalent of NCAP does not exist for software. Perhaps a startup can fix this.
