'1. Problems with secure software development training

    A.   No place for developers to get trained where a training path has been laid out
    B.   Classes ranging from 2 to 3 days don’t cover enough material to elevate job skills  
    C.   Some technologies such as Java require a more robust security curriculum 
    D.   Educators are barred from teaching secure software development courses which
           constrains the growth of education services and the number of trained people.  
    E.   Colleges don’t integrate secure development into their curricula despite teaching 
           architectural illustration using techniques such as UML, data flow, and use cases. 
    F.   Lean or light secure software development should be considered an option when
          risk analysis permits, not as a way to cajole developers into dipping their toes into
          something they would like to avoid.
    G.  Despite the existence of attack enumeration services such as CERT and Symantec, 
          the software development communities at large are not as a matter of course acting
          to mitigate these threats.
