| Feb 20, 2011 at 3:46 | comment | added | D.W. | The most common errors are not errors in the code, but rather misconceptions about how to use cryptography. In other words, the developer would probably make the same mistake in any language. Therefore, I recommend broadening the question so that it's not so focused on code; most errors are conceptual errors, not coding flaws. | |
