Microsoft: No Security Fixes for March
9 Comments
No need to beware the Ides of March. Microsoft's Security Response Center has given advance notice to customers not to expect any security patches for this month. In comparison, February produced the second largest crop of security bulletins since Microsoft moved to its system of aggregated monthly updates.
"On 8 March 2005 the Microsoft Security Response Center is planning to release no new security bulletins," reads the notice. Instead, Microsoft will be hosting a security webcast on March 9 to answer customer questions about the company's patch cycle. According to security firm Secunia, 20 vulnerabilities remain in Internet Explorer 6 alone.
