Security Issue in Linux
| As reported in VNUNET, Windows suffered fewer security vulnerabilities than Linux last year, according to figures released by vulnerability tracker SecurityFocus.
|
Listed on SecurityFocus tracker, Mandrake Linux 7.2 top up 33 vulnerabilities, Red Hat 7.0 suffered 28, Mandrake 7.1 had 27 and Debian 2.2 had 26.
as for Windows, it shared fourth most vulnerable position with 24, tohether with Sun Solaris 7.0 and 8.0.
It's clearly Microsoft has done their homework this time and Linux is slacking? Why does Windows could come up from the most vunerable into way better?, one thing is that Linux needs a unify security arrangement between Distros which i think would be better, but one thing to remember, frequent release of new version on distro's does count as a measurement on this matters, like Mandrake, now it's on 8.2 beta stage, boy that's fast.
