| subject: | Gartner advises pulling the plug on MS Passport |
From: "Joe Barr" http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&cid=74&e=8&u=/cmp/10000198 (they may be stupid, but occassionally they get something right) Market research group Gartner is advising businesses using Microsoft's Passport authentication service to pull the plug on it. The move is a response to a serious security flaw discovered May 7 that placed at risk the identities of roughly 200 million users of the online single-sign-on user-identity service. -- --- BBBS/NT v4.01 Flag-4* Origin: Barktopia BBS Site http://HarborWebs.com:8081 (1:379/1.45) SEEN-BY: 633/267 270 @PATH: 379/1 106/1 2000 633/267 |
