Mozilla recently announced some changes to the way it will interact with members of the security community who contribute code, bug reports and fixes for the Firefox Web browser and other open source tools. Michael Coates, director of security assurance at Mozilla, recently answered some questions about the changes and how they will impact how the organization deals with security researchers. The goal of these new programs is to continue to grow and expand the Mozilla security community, he says. The main challenge in security tool development is identifying talented individuals and building pragmatic security solutions that are usable within a secure software development lifecycle.
