Re: Security Tips

I think there are basically 10 security principals that you can use.
Other than that you may want to be more specific about particular
threats. There is usually a new security threat from Microsoft that is
not yet patched and you may want to use that opportunity to describe
workarounds and opportunities to avoid being infected like they usually
recommend. http://isc.sans.org/ usually says these recommendations again
if you would rather not read Microsoft's advisories.
