This al comes down to the same issue it is in most cases not the technology that has security flaws, but the way it is implemented and used. The blame is not on the vendors but on the implementors and in most cases the customer, the e-commerce or e-business site. Everybody wants security but when starting to talk about budget and implementation, it always comes down to almost no budget available and therefore the customer sometimes chooses the easy way out and gives their users the false sence of security, although the security vendors and integrators heavily warn their customer, but as we say the "customer is king", in the end he pays and if security companies would only do the customers who have the budget and awarness towards security, there would not be a lot of business.
