Which is why that wasn't what the article was about. The article was about the net security of Cisco's customers, who have every right to expect the highest possible standards of behaviour in their suppliers. As was pointed out in the article, open sourced software is more likely to be secure.

You can't get much more mature than that.

Who'd be a customer?
