Microsoft's New Security Road Map
:
With all of the attacks on Microsoft software the past few months, it is increasingly hard to chalk it up to the fact that Microsoft products are the most widely used in the industry, and are therefore the prime target for black hatters. Are Microsoft's coding practices and product-development teams just not as attuned to security as they should be? (Meryl)
