One thing is software development is not really focused on secure software. If Microsoft ca n manage to call recall a engineered product feature where those M$ folks get payed stacks to work on, can't even both securing the data in rest, and then decide its a great idea to use cloud computing for recall, then I can totally see "security software engineer" becoming a separate field.
Securing software seems to be hard especially in web development. You got to worry about regular development, then all these crazy different exploit methods like xss,SQL injection, data sanitation, etc....and then you got to get this site working for multiple browsers, you need to jugle all of this. And if an api or some 3rd party tool gets compromised how do you prevent that except a crystal ball a bottle of burbon and a clairvoyant chant?
Also their was iirc people submitting bogus CVE reports to increase the mental drain on people and overwhelm the human link which is always the weakest.
