Q&A: Microsoft's Allchin on Blaster, security

NetworkWorldFusion wrote an article/interview with Microsoft's Jim Allchin about Blaster, and how it relates to Microsoft. An interesting read, mostly to see just how people at Microsoft are reflecting on what they are doing wrong. In spite of the push for the Trustworthy Initiative, they have a long ways to go.

Admittedly, W2K3S is better with a lower attack surface that previous versions of the OS, but that does nothing for the masses currently running XP, W2K and earlier versions. Time will only tell the results of such eye opening experiences for the MS campus.
