  Microsoft funding of security report decried
Time: 06:25 EST/11:25 GMT | News Source: Seattle PI | Posted By: Chris Hedlund

Finding that system is superior to Linux is biased, critics say

Two researchers surprised the audience at a computer-security convention last month with their finding that a version of Microsoft Windows was more secure than a competing Linux operating system. This week, the researchers released their finished report, and it included another surprise: Microsoft was funding the project all along. The researchers, from the Florida Institute of Technology and Boston-based Security Innovation Inc., defend their process and conclusions as valid. They say they had "complete editorial control over all research and analysis" involved in the project. Their report details their methods, and they invite other experts to examine and duplicate their work.
