When organisations were asked "Which languages and platforms in your application portfolio have been the greatest source of risk or exposure to your organization?" in the SANS Institute "A SANS Survey: Rethiking the Sec in DevSecOps: Security as Code", security officers mention Python 29.4% of the time (first of the list - they can choose up to three languages - dated 2021).
My question is: when will Python be seen as "risk or exposure 'free'" in the near future?
Edit: small typo
- VectorLock 4y agoI'd be willing to wager that is because Python is simply highly represented in the workplaces of those interviewed. To think Python in and of itself is more risky or exposing than other languages, especially those like C/C++ where it's considered by some to be impossible to write safe programs, doesn't make much sense.
