While code quality is exceptionally important, most code will eventually fail so we cannot focus exclusively on getting the code right. Imagine for a moment your code is perfect. It's only perfect by today's standards—a snapshot of best practices at the time it was developed. Yet the vulnerability research landscape is constantly evolving.
