When to deploy patches to my thousands of machines is my administration problem, not Microsoft's. Giving me the tools to make these decisions puts more power to protect my company into my hands. Denying patches to me simply to fit a schedule denies me flexibility and, potentially, security.
- WorldWideWayne 12y agoMicrosoft first has to test and deploy the patch to their servers, not yours. At the level they're operating, a schedule seems like an obvious requirement for releasing patches.
- delinka 12y agoOf course they have to test internally first. Once the patch is validated, why sit on it for three weeks waiting for that arbitrary date? Put it out as soon as it's ready.
- WorldWideWayne 12y agoCould you provide a citation for Microsoft sitting on it for three weeks?
