CERTStation Threat-Level Aggregator

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the if-you-don't-like-the-weather-wait-a-minute dept.

sloit writes "Just spotted, the CERTStation Threat level Aggregator displays the current threat level, in real-time, as assessed by 8 of the Internet's leading vulnerability watch services such as Symantec Threatcon, ISS Alertcon and SANS Infocon on one publically accessible Web page. Well, that saves a lot of daily trudging!"

    This is good, but this is better.

    "we see it fine"

    For a liberal interpretation of the word "fine". Gah! I have Flash installed and this site was hideous enough to consider UNinstalling it.

    To the GP, it's 100% useless to those who have Flash installed, too.

  3. Slashdot incompetence selling company incompetence by Futurepower(R) · · Score: 2, Informative

    This is another demonstration of Slashdot editor incompetence. The Slashdot story is apparently nothing but an advertisement for a commercial company formerly called Haval-Daar that seems completely incompetent and destined to fail immediately. There is apparently no connection with CERT whatsoever; the name is apparently intended only to confuse. Since the word havaldaar is apparently a Hindi word, I suppose Haval-Daar is a company started by people from India.

    Did someone at Slashdot take money to advertise this company?

    Let this be a lesson to those who spend a lot of time playing video games when they could be learning to be socially competent: If you don't learn about the people around you, you will eventually sink to the bottom of business.
