Wednesday, August 17, 2005 A Quick Word About Security UpdatesIf you have not heard about the new Windows worm yet, read this story. We may not like it, but the state of Windows today requires that we patch our systems immediately, as in within 24 hours. Organizations that still believe they have the luxury of running security patches through dev / test / beta environments that takes weeks or months have got to wake up. You really only have maybe 48 - 72 hours to get through this cycle. While many organizations got hit by a single computer being unpatched, I can tell you I know of more than one that does not patch its systems for sometimes months. And if I know them, I'm sure you do to, and there are lot's out there. posted by Scott Kuhl at 10:01 AM

AboutWelcome to my tech blog. My primary focus is development but I did spend a few years recently on the networking side. You will find that most of the items relate to Microsoft based technology. It's not that I have anything against Java, Linux, etc. It's just not what I do. If life were Star Wars, I would be a Storm Trooper. ContributorsPrevious
