Study: Adobe, Microsoft tops for scripting security
In a rare bit of good news involving Microsoft and security, a recent survey by Evans Data has found that Adobe and Microsoft scripting environments offer the best security to developers. The company surveyed over 400 developers and asked them to identify the most secure scripting language from a list of about 12. Adobe's Flex came out on top, with Microsoft's ASP.Net AJAX just behind it. "Developers know that strong security is the foundation of great user experiences, and an increasingly important selection criteria for rich Internet application development technology," said Jeff Whatcott, vice president of marketing at Adobe, in a statement. "It's wonderful to see Flex recognized as the security leader."
