One of the big problems with Mozilla was that they didn't have a Security Czar. This lack meant that far-reaching threats such as phishing failed to be addressed because the scope was too broad for the existing specialists, and as Firefox now takes the teens in browser market share, that's a big issue.
Now they do! Excellent news, reported over on "schrep's blog":
Window has joined MozCorp recently as our new "Chief Security Something" (that's a working title :-)). She'll be the public voice of Mozilla Corporation on security issues and helping to drive our long-term security strategy.
Congrats! Also, article at eWeek
