Recent Web Site Attacks Microsoft: Massive site attacks not our fault. Microsoft late Friday responded to news reports that hackers have leveraged weaknesses in the company's Web and SQL software to attack hundreds of thousands of Web pages. [Latest from Computerworld] Bill Sisk, Communication Manager at Microsoft Security Response Center, said the post was in response to reports that over half a million pages, including some belonging to the United Nations, have been compromised by SQL injection attacks. Once hacked, those sites were modified to download malware to visitors' PCs. Is it my reading, or has security become worse recently--Not much place to be secure any more. 4:07:24 PM    comment []
