 | The recent Microsoft Security Intelligence Report (SIR) that showed malware infection attempts are increasing has prompted this response from Gavin Millard, technical director EMEA of Tenable Network Security "The most concerning aspect of the report, aside from the sheer volume of malware encountered by both end users and the enterprise, is that the most commonly targeted individual vulnerability last year was CVE-2010-2568. "CVE-2010-2568, a vulnerability well known for its usage in the Stuxnet malware family in June 2010, has had a patch available since 2 August 2010, but many systems are still being successfully targeted. With the fascination of the latest vulnerabilities to be discovered, the newest logo'd bug to hit the media, its critically important that organisations don't forget to patch the long forgotten vulnerabilities still lingering that can be easily exploited." | ||
