Patch Tuesday Work Continues
Some months, Microsoft releases patches and IT has an easy time installing 'em. This month didn't seem like a big deal with only six fixes, but some of these repairs are time-consuming and also raise substantial issues.
In particular, DirectX is now a major vector of attack. Now IT has to take a hard look at locking down ActiveX and DirectX. How do you handle these systems? Do you leave it up to Microsoft to patch or take bolder measures? Advice welcome at dbarney@redmondmag.com.
