So very very good

When I read this, I was like oh my gosh, how could I ever code like that.

This book is so, so very important if you care about secure coding.

Software Security lives

One of the authors here. John Viega and I were very pleased with this book, which seems to have ignited an entire field. Now that we have a few more years under our belts, I recommend that you check out Software Security: Building Security In for a treatment of how to put the software security philosophy in this book into practice.

It's time to DO software security.

Good reference

Nutshell review - This is a very good book covering all the basics of secure software design and then some. Clearly Viega and McGraw are required reading if you are in the business of software.

It covers pretty well software security theory

It is a good book but with the exception of the chapter on buffer overflows, my perception of the book is that it focus mainly on the theory of software security. As someone who has an engineer formation, I have a preference for books more pratical with more concrete examples. For this reason, I did prefer Hunting Security Bugs

Highly recommended

Accurate, to-the-point, and proper coverage of main topics. Good job on part of authors.
Unfortunately, the book's accompanying website (www.building secure software.com/) at the time of this writing is not responding.
