Anti-trust settlements and legislation, along with regulation as a result of those do dictate multi-browser support for some things. Microsoft and in particular Windows is heavily regulated.

Its only for NFS and not NTFS and only in v4 of NFS at that. Most systems will not need any action and those that do are unique enough that they're should be patched regularly in the first place.

This wasn't done to divide the community. This was done as a simple thank you and as Microsoft treats GitHub as a separate business entity, Microsoft almost certainly wasn't involved in this decision. 500k is small enough that t

Not likely, GitHub is a separate business and makes their own decisions. MS also competes with GitHub also; Azure Repos are a thing, as is Azure DevOps and those are just two examples. MS has plenty of products that compete with each other

Former MSFT here. People tend to think of Microsoft as one unified company with a unified strategy. That is not the case, its best thought of as a batch of little companies that band together to create a product. These companies may compe

Microsoft employs many people that are open-source advocates. Someone's perspective on that would not impact their status in an interview. If anything, the reason feedback took forever to him was because someone may have asked for an

Agreed, and I have a variety of these (certifications). Most of the top tier people that I know in cyber security are not certified professionals, but rather people that have deep knowledge in their area of expertise with the ability to app

So, attribution doesn't work that way. During an active incident, attribution details are not published. This incident still has people responding to it, and potentially further impacted victims. Indicators of compromise are publishe

Disclaimer: Am Microsoft. Windows source is open to most people at MS. MS is not joking when it says we practice an "inner source" policy, in that we do not rely on the security of our source code to secure our products.

Then you should go review major security events. Attackers have been able to compromise major environments regardless of OS type. Windows having a larger market share is clearly going to have more compromises, but other OS based environmen

At the moment, this is an active incident with response still going on. The attackers likely have persistence in multiple places in target networks. Releasing attribution evidence right now will not happen as that would intrude on the resp

Microsoft and Fireeye have both made similar claims and released substantial technical details. Attribution is hard, but those two companies have a solid reputation and do not make BS claims.

This is off topic, but there is increased risk due to the failure of the central engine and the inability to jettison it in the event of a fire. Wikipedia notes it as a design issue: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trijet

The issue isn't malware authors acquiring it the source, the issue is that other people would then build said source and run it (XP) or worse, build products on it as XP was very stable. Those systems would then get infected and becom
