Security of Open Source ASP Implementations

[Ken Burtch]

I had a job interview yesterday with a well-known Toronto non-profit
organization.  They had been running Linux but had decided to outsource
their IT requirements to Bell (or a Bell affiliate).  As part of the
deal, the organization is required to switch to all Microsoft products
and Active Server Pages.  This is partly because Bell has a business
agreement with Microsoft not to support rival products like Linux.  But
when asked about open source ASP products, the organization was told
that they were "insecure".

Just curious but does anyone know anything about security issues
regarding any of the open source ASP implementations?  Say, versus
Microsoft ASP (that is, IIS)?
