I&#x27;m also on the defensive side. I went to the last &quot;DefCon&quot;, which you&#x27;d think expands to &quot;Defense Conference&quot;. There was a grand total of <i>one</i> presentation that had defensive elements in it and I still don&#x27;t recall it being <i>dedicated</i> to the topic.<p>I don&#x27;t intend to go back. Great conference, don&#x27;t get me wrong, I got personal <i>enjoyment</i> out of much of it, but it&#x27;s impossible for me to professionally justify it.<p>Defense isn&#x27;t fun enough, for anybody; neither the one defending, nor the developer who was just told the code the spent a week developing is a gaping security hole, nor the managers being asked to spend money to prevent black swans, nor the open source developers having fun developing frameworks and libraries, and on it goes. It just isn&#x27;t fun.
