A popular subject on the blog has always been around the conversion of one data format to another data format. For example we’ve already seen how to convert XML data to JSON data with JavaScript , but what if we wanted to work with comma separated value (CSV) data instead? We’re going to see how to take a CSV file, parse it into JSON, make some changes, and then convert it back into a CSV file using Node.js and a few readily available packages.

In this post, I argue that software and data interoperability, a hallmark of the modern computer ecosystem, is at the core of several widespread security problems. An alternate approach is to tie data and potentially software to specific physical instances of a digital system. While such an approach would eliminate the ease with which we can share software and data, it could eliminate incidents where data is lost to attackers or where systems are attacked by malware.
