Story: Firms urged to use unauthorised Windows patch
Posted by: John Doh (Wednesday 4 January 2006, 10:42 PM)
In the end whether you install the patch or not, this is all about trust, and risk assesmsnt. Do you trust the prople who are reccomending you install the patch. Are you prepared to risk the consequences of your decision?
I've told my mother, my wife and all my friends to install this, walked my folks through the install in simple easy to understand terms.
I trust F-secure, even though I use Symantec AV. I read the ISC handlers dairy every day so I'm willing to trust them with this, they've earned that much.
Our CERT, (I work for an international agency) is telling people who maintain thier own coproprate PC's to install the patch.
I know who I trust, do you?
