The Reality of Perception
Tim Mullen, 2003-04-07

A new poll finds that seventy-seven percent of security professionals believe Microsoft products are insecure. But a closer look at the survey tells a far more interesting story.

If Symantec had anything to do with content on this site, your troll would not have made it here, would it? What *has* changed about this forum is that is used to be a place where professionals could come to see what other professionals' take on security issues was (this part has not changed) but now we must endure childish posts from trolls who add nothing. Please go back to slashdot where you belong.

Insofar as using the "I didn't choose this software" excuse, you show yourself to be the exact type Mr. Mullen refers to. You pretend that it is OK to dismiss your responsiblity to do the job you are paid to do because you blame other people for making you secure Microsoft products. If you can't or don't know how to secure the products you were hired to secure, then quit and get a job at Starbucks.

The rest of us will be doing our jobs.
