Microsoft has released a new Security Incident Report--the eighth volume of Microsoft's quarterly overview of computer and network security trends. The report illustrates once again that security can be greatly improved by upgrading to the latest software, and through user education.

The Key Findings Summary points out some of the more relevant data discovered over the past three months.

Vinny Gullotto, general manager of the Microsoft Malware Protection Center wrote in a post on The Official Microsoft Blog "The Internet holds great opportunity, but as cybercrime evolves it can be difficult to know how to stay protected."
