Debate Continues Over Whether Microsoft Should Hurry Patches for Vulnerabilities | |

Mozilla representatives sharply rebuked a report earlier this month which pointed to Firefox as being the "most vulnerable app" to businesses. In its rebuke, Mozilla cited its rapid rate of patching and criticized Microsoft as being too slow when it came to patches, particularly for Internet Explorer. The result is an interesting debate -- should patches be rushed to market or be given time to be fully tested. | ||

The original article was not about speed of patching, but central management of updates and patches. Once again you would need to be admin, security risk?, to install and patch Firefox. When this is distributed among hundreds of PC's how does IT keep track of who is updated and not updated, who's admin and not admin.
Firefox is trying to redirect the argument. |
