Security Jitters for Windows Vista

Windows Vista as an up-and-coming operating system seems to hold a lot of promise – quite a bit more, it seems, than previous versions of Windows. From what we’ve learned it’s packed with loads of features such as a more efficient file restoring system, more organized photo storage (as well as easier photo sharing), more user-friendly navigation and many more other improvements. And with its spiffy site building on the hype, it’s as if Windows users can’t help but get  more and more excited for its release in 2007.

Security-software manufacturer Symantec also agrees that more can be expected from Windows Vista. More security problems, that is. Symantec says that since Microsoft replaced old codes (which have already been used for a very long time) with new ones – ones that come with an entirely new set of defects – new problems arise as they are currently exploring new terrain. Microsoft replies that they are still working to improve Windows Vista’s security features, such as checking for glitches that may prove cumbersome for users.

Will Windows Vista keep its promise of more exciting features, or will it pose more problems for its users? Hopefully, come early 2007 we will find out.
