I second Vin's mention of Howard & LeBlanc's _Writing Secure Code_. IMHO =
it
is much more approachable than Anderson's book, which is probably better =
for
designers and architects. MS bought several thousand copies of the first
edition and made it mandatory reading for developers; the second edition
(just out) is greatly expanded.

Can any of you recommend a good text or reference on computer security? =
I'm
looking for something targeted at the system/application developer more =
than
the network administrator, the kind of book you wish more people at =
Microsoft
had read.
