Abstract

For the past year (1996-7), the browser war between Netscape and Microsoft has made Internet news headlines, with each company offering new and better features. But the competition for "more features" leaves an important area of network software behind: security. In fact, packing software with features is the best way to complicate its security. And even if software companies made securing their Web products their highest priority, human related errors would still remain. Securing the Web starts with Web users understanding security. The article goes on to discuss server-side security, cryptography and client-side security.
