Microsoft February Security Updates
Well it’s almost that time of the month again, when everyone with an MS server or desktop needs to pay attention to the latest security email from Micrsoft and start testing the patches when they are issued. I see that this time the advanced notification has 12 security updates with the obligatory “some may be critical”. It always bugs me that they say there will x number and some may be critical. Why not just issue the patches and be damned with advanced notification. Nowdays you are almost guaranteed that some will be critical. Of course you could always bypass the testing and just download and install automatically like most home & SME users will.
And lets wait for the avalanche of “is Linux\Apple more sucure” headlines. Anybody that subscribes to the Cert and UNIRAS (or what ever it is called now) alerts will know that the various -ux implementations and Apple all have their fair share of vulnerabilities, it’s just that no one out there really cares enough to put too much effort into taking advantage of them.
