Cybersecurity Crisis
The software crisis in the late 1960 and early 1970s was driven by the challenge of creating useful and efficient computer programs in a planned engineering process, that is in a well defined amount of time and with predictable costs. Software engineering has evolved as a discipline since then and we have far better tools and techniques in place today for a systematic, disciplined, quantifiable approach to the development, operation, and maintenance of software. Nowadays, we face a new crisis, let me call it the cybersecurity crisis, which is triggered by the need to build systems that deliver service that can be justifiably be trusted even in the face of malicious attacks.
