1) Word From Secunia:

Infosecurity UK: Secunia updates free software update security utility 
"Transparency, control, and prevention through risk management are
critical elements. In turn, risk management would be incomplete without
considering information system security, and in order to reliably assess
and address associated risks and threats, a process that maps the entire
lifecycle is vital." Brian Birkvald, Security Partner Director, Secunia.
