FINAL PROJECT: Abstract and Reader's Reponse > An overview of key security vulnerabilities and how to prevent them
T, you wisely note this reasonable criticism, yet a guide that you propose is a good way to first examine and approach these problems. You are also covered, though, that the technical details of some of these problems would be both proprietary and security-hidden.
As scoped, your guide is fine. And, can help readers approach more detailed, targeted guidance on addressing these problems.

READER'S PROFILE: The target audience is someone with little to no security experience, as the guide does not aim to cover more advanced attack vectors.
READER'S RESPONSE: A likely criticism from a reader is that the guide is not good enough at teaching preventative measures, as it focuses more on raising awareness of vulnerabilities so that programmers know what not to do, instead of using third party tools to patch holes that may or may not be in the code. This would certainly be a valid criticism, however I do not think the scope of this guide is large enough to cover all these topics.
