Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter
Published: 2009
There has been a rash of online heists that have stolen millions of dollars from businesses and non-profit organizations.

It was this undeniable fact that led Brian Krebs - author of the Security Fix blog which over the past month has published a series of articles detailing high-stakes bank thefts - to recommend Windows machines no longer be used by those who choose to do their banking online.
