Talk:Untrusted

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I have noticed in my discussion with various experts in computer security that they have a knack for neologisms. I have created this article because, although a number of Wikipedia articles use the term, "untrusted" there was no articles that address the concept directly. I asked one computer expert about the correctness of the term, and he insisted that this is a term understood by those in the field of information security. In fact, he said, if you substituted the word "untrusted" with an actual word, say, "distrusted" the computer experts would be scratching their heads trying to figure out what you meant. I hope people more knowledgeable than myself can expand this article, but in the meantime, it reflects the usage I have seen by information security experts. --Lenehey 00:21, 11 October 2005 (UTC)
