#2 I've kept this Rantburg computer security discussion in my Favorites for some time now, and refer to it whenever anyone I know gets a new computer. Thank you, Rantburg!

#6 The college will probably have to replace all the computers affected by the attack, Paller said. Thats the only confidence-building measure step you can take,

Replace the WinDoze server software with the CIA's SecureLinux (SELinux) running in a XEN config with SELinux on each virtual machine running server apps one to a virtual machine.
(Be Paranoid not STUPID Like MGMT TYPES. Copy Groves old Intel viewpoint - they are out to get you stupid.)

Put debian on the generic desktops but SELinux on the other desktops.

Don't allow Microsoft to exist anywhere but in a virtual machine on one of the XEN servers that can only access particular internal sites nothing external.

If the DOD can't do that they need to start executing Microsoft Propagandists as 5 columnist traitors....

There! I said it. I am already blacklisted by MS-cheerleaders so I am now free not to shut up.
