A dangerous combination of a massive increase in Web server attacks and poor patching practices is a major cause of concern for experts, according to a report issued today by several security organizations.
Sirius XM Radio has quietly fixed a bug in its satellite radio system that provided a way for former subscribers to gain free access to the Sirius service since 2002, according to security vendor TippingPoint Technologies.
TippingPoint is beta-testing a Web portal that lets customers view Internet-threat intelligence the company has gathered from around the globe, as well as polls of how other customers are dealing with those threats.
