Well it was about time we got around to updating the ISC Poll.  I came up with the current poll after reading Lenny's great diary post on "Tips to responding to a DDoS attack".  So that being said please do participate in the poll, the results should prove to be interesting in quantifying how many organizations suffer from these sorts of attacks.

Our carbon based RSS news reader known as Roseman has alerted us to the availability of a new Java release. Sun Java 6.0 Update 11 is now available!

The release notes are available for you enjoyment, and Sun describe the release as "This release contains fixes for one or more security vulnerabilities."

Roseman also suggests that you check the settings in the "Java Control Panel" just in case the settings you have chosen have been reset by the release.

Thanks to the other readers who submitted the news of the update too!
