* Operating System Vulnerability Scorecard, July 2007
posted by Thom Holwerda on Tue 21st Aug 2007 18:19 UTC, submitted by SEJeff
IconJeff Jones has published another one of his vulnerability scorecards comparing various operating system offerings. As always, these figures just list the patched vulnerabilities over the designated period of time; they do not take into account any unfixed or undisclosed vulnerabilities. Hence, these reports are not proper measurements of security - they are just that, a tally of fixed vulnerabilities. Any conclusions like "x is more secure than y" cannot be drawn from this data set. As always, do with it as you please.
