  4. two hard questions for Bill Hilf. on Ask Microsoft's Linux Lab Manager · · Score: 1

    Hi M. Hilf.

    A little intro first.

    From the interview at Yahoo News :"I am a non-Microsoft guy working at Microsoft"

    So my first question would be : How can you let Microsoft post on his website and accept some "unfair to competition" false reports in the get the facts campain?

    I'll explain. You can see here the MS report about "Role Comparison Security Report: Database Server Role". And you can look at Secunia.com too see that MS SQL 2000 is rated Highly critical compare to MySql version 4 for example to less critical. All other numbers in the front page and everything in this report is base on FUD (and I'll add playing with numbers). I have another 1000 examples, but let's stay here. The report says that MSSQL is more secure by the way. Mabe it should be rename to the "Get the facts that we want you to see and nothing else".

    Sorry for this long question, but i guess it is needed for less confusion.

    Second question : So, should we trust the rating of Secunia or other Microsoft-sponsored study?

  9. And I must agree with this parent comment. on Death Penalty For Hackers? · · Score: 1
    Let's face it, businesses are becoming more dependent on their computers but they continue to be a point of failure, and subsequently, frustration through lost profits.
    I mabe trolling here but I must shout it out...

    Yep, computers and information are assets of the company! Now, WHY DONT THEY PROTECT IT? I mean, you have car insurances for your car right? You got insurances for the house too!

    What has the company done to insure that his information and infrastructure is secure? What has been done each year to better the situation? External audit of the company? I mean, big company have to do external verification of there finance to comply with Federal regulation. Why don't they do it with security?

    Control points on all information? Who consulted, changed or print what information, from where and at what time? Who has that? Less then 1% of companys.

    Under the new solution, tracks ripped and burned from a copy-protected disc are copied to a blank CD in Microsoft's Windows Media Audio format. The DRM embedded on the discs bars the burned CD from being copied.
