Report: Microsoft dominance poses security risk | |
|
||
| Time: 10:52 EST/15:52 GMT | News Source: CNET | Posted By: Robert Stein | ||

A computer industry group critical of Microsoft plans to release a report on Wednesday arguing that the software giant's dominance in key technologies threatens national infrastructure. The report, issued by the Computer and Communications Industry Association, argues that the reliance on a single technology such as the Windows operating system for such an overwhelming majority of computer systems threatens the security of the U.S. economy and critical infrastructure, according to a draft seen by CNET News.com. The paper, written by three security experts, also warns that many security improvements planned by Microsoft are likely designed to raise the barrier that deters customers from switching to another operating system. | ||
