Overview: This white paper document deals with an examination of the information economic environment where market-driven software development occurs, which is characterized by network effects and lock-in, and suggests that the schedule and the budget constraints on secure software and IS development are outcomes of rational economic behavior. It shows the consequences for security of first-to market competition (e.g. shortening development-cycle, release-oriented development, beta testing) and customer lock-in (e.g. into an insecure product) which are considered from an economic point of view.
