Ned here again. If you are at all interested in security, here is a must-read:
Microsoft Security Intelligence Report volume 6 (July - December 2008)
This covers trends and perspectives on:
It's not for the skimmer - it's 184 pages of very detailed analysis, and some of them are eye-opening. Such as the finding that industry-wide, roughly 90% of all vulnerabilities in this period were found to be in applications and browsers, not operating systems. What's your company's application patching strategy? What about your application vendors' strategy?
For a quick sum up read, check out the smaller 'Key Findings' download, or stop by the MS Malware Protection portal.
