Comment

That is a little one eyed at best. There are serious vulnerabilities in all O/S environments. Not just Microsoft. Believe me, I am not a Microsoft proponent, but the problem really lies in the reluctance of companies to spend money on ensuring the availability and integrity of critical systems. Sure, the software companies wear a lot of the blame, but we can vote with our money as well. Microsoft are now acknowledging the inadequate focus on security for which they are to be applauded. Now if companies will maintain a constant focus on enterprise system security, rather than a kneejerk approach, we may get somewhere in the long term. Education is the key.
