I think this is a really contrived example. I'd welcome a different example that doesn't sound so silly. Signed-off-by: Justin Cappos <justincappos@gmail.com>

| Both a security assessment and a security audit help to understand the security of a system and play different, but overlapping, roles. A security audit focuses primarily at looking for security defects in a project's implementation or a deviation from established best practices. In contrast, an assessment focuses on thinking about what a reasonable project of this type might be expected to provide in terms of security properties and potential gotchas for users. |
