SecurityFocus On MS Security "Hole"

Posted by timothy on from the if-you're-sitting-at-the-console dept.

friday2k writes "There is an interesting writeup at SecurityFocus that puts the latest security 'hole' in XP into perspective. It is a worthy read and should remind us all of the real issues out there." And it collects into one place much of the flak I caught after posting about the claimed security hole opened by the XP Recovery Console.

    It is unfortunate that the people in a position to educate the masses to computer security do not even bother to educate themselves. When banner ad revenue for a media outlet becomes more important than accuracy, it's time to find a new profession.

    No doubt.
