Smalltalk Security Landscape - survey for ESUG 2018

Hi Jerry,

Thanks for doing this. I'm very interested to see what the results will look like.

• question 13: do all attacks count (e.g. network based)? Not all are necessarily directly tied to the security of the Smalltalk environment. I assume yes.
• question 14: what is your definition of "formal testing"? To me this sounds like program verification.
• questions 39 / 40: by "password encryption", do you mean SSL/TLS? Or an application layer encryption? I assume SSL/TLS. -> for 40 that means every non-encrypted HTTP request that includes a password.

Cheers,
Max

Dear Smalltalkers and friends,

I am planning to have a presentation titled ‘Smalltalk Security Landscape’ at this year’s ESUG conference. In my presentation I hope to increase cybersecurity awareness within the Smalltalk community and help shape the evolution of the language and its ecosystem.

I have put together a survey to help me research the topic. I ask for your kind help to get a picture of where Smalltalk stands in the area of cybersecurity. The survey is completely anonymous, and should take less than 15 minutes to complete. I appreciate your time and participation.

If you are in a management role, I would like your help by forwarding this to your team members to help reach the broad Smalltalk community.

Thank you for your help, and hope to see you in Cagliari!
