Cisco exec: Windows Vista is scary

Wednesday, September 20th, 2006

Bob Gleichauf, the chief technology officer in Cisco Systems’ security technology group, has raisedWindows Vista 8.jpg concerns that integrating Vista into a complex IT infrastructure could present problems.

"Parts of Vista scare me," Gleichauf said at the Gartner Security Summit here on Monday. "Anything with that level of systems complexity will have new threats, as well as bringing new solutions. It’s always a struggle in security, trying to build for what you don’t know."

Gleichauf told CNET News.com’s sister site ZDNet UK that Cisco views the Microsoft operating system update, set for broad release in January, as a bearer of possible solutions to security problems, but also as a potential trigger of security issues.[tag]Cisco Windows Vista[/tag] Cisco exec: Windows Vista is scary | CNET News.com
