Security Management White Papers
Solid Windows Vista Protection
Overview The new security features included in Vista are a step forward in helping businesses defend against attacks, but they cannot be considered a complete, multi-layered defense. It goes without saying that attackers follow security vulnerabilities, as these are a requirement for their success. Over the past several years, these vulnerabilities have increasingly moved up the application stack and away from the core operating system. Threats have moved (and will continue to move) into other areas, such as the Web application layer, where the majority of all new security vulnerabilities reside today. These threats target more available technologies, including email, IM, and the Web, leveraging social engineering and other convincing trickery in order to infect their victims.
