How will you celebrate "Microsoft Patch Day?"
Could this become a monthly "special day?" Perhaps, IT professionals or system administrators should be granted an extra day leave around or immediately after these times of month?
Microsoft Preps 13 Security Advisories
Microsoft's February Patch Day will be a busy one for IT administrators. The software giant on Thursday announced plans to release 13 security advisories on Feb. 8, including "critical" fixes for Microsoft Office, Windows Media Player and MSN Messenger. Also expected is a cumulative patch to plug known vulnerabilities in the widely deployed Internet Explorer browser and updates for Microsoft SharePoint Services, Microsoft .NET Framework and Visual Studio.
