If your computer is running a Genuine version of Microsoft's operating system and are currently unprotected (no antivirus software installed) you may soon be greeted with an optional update for Microsoft Security Essentials. The Windows update option may potentially open some doors for a new slew of suits aimed at Microsoft though. Companies<a

If we look at a company I have done business with as an example; the company has implemented numerous security measures such as Hard Drive Encryption, Web Filter, Password Policies, Internal and External Firewalls, IP Security, Port Security, SPAM Filtering, Domain Policies /scripting,  and more, all in an effort<a
