Current Cyber Threat Level Guarded [Blue]

On February 9, 2010, the Cyber Alert Level is being raised from Green (Low) to Blue (Guarded) due to the 13 security bulletins - five rated Critical, seven rated Important, and one rated Moderate - addressing 26 vulnerabilities which will be issued by Microsoft. Eleven of the bulletins affect Windows and the remaining two affect Office. Organizations and users are encouraged to update and apply all appropriate vendor security patches to vulnerable systems and to continue to update their antivirus signatures daily. Another line of defense includes user awareness training regarding the threats posed by attachments and hypertext links contained in emails, especially those from un-trusted sources.
