-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 http://blogs.the451group.com/security/?p=16 The 451 Group has an interesting article on the FAIL that is the AV industry right now. I like the last paragraph especially where they reference the "illusion of competence". As they note, having a better metric to test the AV industry (like number of people with it installed who get owned by malware) would largely benefit consumers as a whole. I wouldn't look for anything here soon. But the market is smart. When a technology doesn't work, they just move to Vista and stop buying it. - -dave P.S.http://failblog.wordpress.com/ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFH9mmDtehAhL0gheoRAs/gAJsFKESL9/5MKPh0VRpf1phPgVDeiwCdEvzw LfbC+7lsUmzi+Od8voudFJs= =qSAK -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Dailydave mailing list Dailydave () lists immunitysec com http://lists.immunitysec.com/mailman/listinfo/dailydave
