Merge from Defense in Depth

I merged Defense in Depth to this page, and created a disambiguation page at the former. I felt this was the right move because Defense in Depth was describing the computer security term, not the military term, though they're rather intertwined. A redirect felt out of place, as it isn't obvious what someone searching for "defense in depth" really wants to see. I just want to make sure everyone is okay with this. -FrankTobia (talk) 06:41, 22 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sources

I noticed that a user recently removed a {{Fact}} tag, for good reason I believe. However we should note that this article has no sources. I am not a computer security expert, and I would feel more comfortable if there was at least once authoritative source to be had. Can anyone either dig one up, or point me in the right direction? -FrankTobia (talk) 18:15, 6 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

"Writing Secure Code", by Michael Howard and David LeBlanc, Microsoft Press (the second edition is current, but I have the first), has a one-page write-up on Defense in Depth. --MattiasAndersson (talk) 22:18, 28 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
