Interesting Security Review of Vista

A very interesting commentary on vulnerabilities in Vista’s TCP/IP stack, based on a white paper by folks at Symantec.

The vulnerability count plummeted from 34 in build 5231 to 2 in build 5384.  Ok, ok, there are many things to consider, but Dave G’s points about trending and active security reviews are very valid ones.

Good reading on the post, and the white paper looks good as well — but I’ve only skimmed the first couple pages.
