- Do it right the first time

"It's been a fairly painful year... from a security standpoint, there have been more patches than we would have liked but we're starting to clear that."
Build the product right the first time and this problem would not exist. I wonder what is going to happen when some enterprising hacker/script kiddie zapps an exploit in the middle of the patch cycle. I guess we will just take a vacation till the next release.
Here is the scenario. Exploit as many of the old unsupported Windows OS'es as possible then turn lose a massive denial of service attack against the web on whole over whelming the servers. One does not have to attack a specific OS, just flood the servers with so much info they slow. The best of the best can only handle so much information at one time. If I am wrong in my premise someone PLEASE tell me and I will change my mind. - Posted by: Squawkbox Posted on: 11/13/03 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
