Linux Less Secure Than Vista?
I have been hearing a lot lately about how Windows Vista is being said to be more secure overall than the popular Linux distros in the market today. After soaking this in and having a chance to think about it, I can come to only one conclusion: Microsoft must believe that vulnerabilities are worse than actual, in motion exploits being used against exiting operating systems.
The Kings of Security Speak. On the server front, I might be a little more inclined to believe that the vulnerabilities that Linux has could potentially be a threat. But then the news come from the kings of security themselves, Microsoft. These people, while I’m sure their hearts are in the right place, have an abysmal record with security. So to hear them reporting that they have now achieved greater security than Linux is suspect as best, in my opinion.
