As per the press release, "McAfee, Inc. ... today announced that Foundstone Professional Services will launch a series of free tools that teach developers, programmers, architects and security professionals how to create more secure software. The tools will also review the root causes of increasingly prolific crimes such as e-shoplifting, session hi-jacking and identity theft." The tools take the form of actual applications written in a variety of languages and platforms, so as to "replicate interconnected real-world application scenarios including travel, banking and shipping, each written in a different programming language, to demonstrate the potential cross-platform risks to a business' own applications, and those they are connected to."
One of the apps, Hacme Shipping, is a "Web based shipping application written in ColdFusion MX7, using the Model-Glue framework and MySQL database."
It's good to see ColdFusion recognized as a legitimate platform, along with the others to be included.
