Clarke Urges Companies to Stop Selling Buggy Software

Speaking at the Black Hat computer security conference in Las Vegas,
White House cybersecurity advisor Richard Clarke said that software
companies need to stop selling unsecure software, and that users
should refuse to buy products that don't provide adequate security.
It's possible that with the release of the national cyber security plan
to be released in September, all federal agencies will be required to
purchase only those IT products on a list of independently certified
products; only the DoD is presently bound by such a requirement.
