Looking Back At Windows Security In 2003

Posted by simoniker on from the pane-shattering-trackback dept.

thebatlab writes "Help Net Security has an interesting look at security in Windows during 2003, with various blurbs from related parties at Microsoft as well as security 'bigwigs' such as Russ Cooper. It's interesting to read the comments from external parties, as they tend to be very reasoned comments and don't simply attack away over recent 'indiscretions' and 'security lapses' Microsoft has had over the year."

    I just hope that in the next few weeks we won't see a disaster like the Slammer worm.

    That, in a nutshell, destroys the entire article. The end user shouldn't be forced to "hope" that bad things won't happen to their computers. Any vendor that instills so much lack of confidence in their products doesn't deserve the benefit of the doubt.
