How do we make software more secure?

One big factor that helps with security is eliminating complexity.

Why does complexity make security more difficult?

More complex code is more difficult to understand, harder to get correct. Bugs are one of angles of attack by malicious actors.

One of the big drivers for building IguanaX was to simplify our own software. To reduce complexity and make it easier for us to deliver more correctness. Out of that comes more security.

Lua is a great choice for a secure scripting language because of its simplicity.
