The article comments on some issues on computer industry in the U.S. Bill Gates, head of the Microsoft Corp., on delivering his keynote on the topic trust ecosystem in the recent 2006 RSA Conference held in San Jose, California, in some ways had recast simply the comments made by once-archival Scott McNealy, chairman and CEO of Sun Microsystems Inc. With this, many cannot help but think Gates was sounding of a dreadful kind a lot like McNealy. Gates stressed about security technologies that enable isolation. Meanwhile, Microsoft has developed its own scanning analysis tools: PREfix and PREfast, AppVerifier, and others after leading the charge to revamp Microsoft's coding practices wherein automated scanning tools do no make code secure.
