How to use RSS

To access these feeds in a readable format, you need an RSS reader/aggregator. There are three main ways to use an RSS aggregator: a client-based application, a plug-in for your browser, or a web script that runs on your website.

• Blogspace has a good list of Windows/Linux/Mac clients, many of them freeware.
• There are RSS extensions for the excellent (and secure) Firefox & Mozilla Web browsers; there are also several RSS toolbars/sidebars available for Internet Explorer.

Once your RSS Reader is setup and you've added the new SecurityFocus RSS feeds, browse on over to Scott Granneman's column for an exhaustive list of many other security-related RSS feeds that may interest you.
