Craig Mundie, Microsoft Senior VP for Advanced Strategies and Policies recently addressed the what he sees as the major problem facing his company. Attempting to plug the many holes in older versions of the their software products, which he estimated at 30 to 40 times larger than the installed base of current versions. In Wired News, Mr. Mundie is quoted as stating “We’re going to tell people that even if it means we’re going to break some of your apps, we’re going to make these things more secure. You’re just going to have to go back and fix it. We’re all going to have to collectively spend more, both in the development and maintenance of these machines, if we are going to be more secure.” Seems the ball remains firmly in the user’s court.
