With all the viruses, cracking and phising going on people are simply turning it into a law enforcement issue; copyright issues are contributing to a more police minded way of handling security and ownership of software. If your poorly written server gets cracked and your source code finds its way onto the internet, just call the police and blame the thief.
In "Secrets and Lies", Bruce Schneier states (in the forward?) that he's changed his views on dealing with computer security issues after having seen many people create insecure systems using his "Applied Cryptography" tome. I don't have the book in front of me, but he says something to the effect that we may be forced to deal with the issue through the use of underwriters, as other industries have done. -Damian
