Sophos Web-Umfrage: 30 Prozent der IT-Verantwortlichen geben Systemadministratoren die Schuld an massiver Conficker-Verbreitung

Unternehmen im deutschsprachigen Raum besonders gefährdet

(PresseBox) (Mainz, )
Systemadministratoren sind mit schuld am massiven Ausbruch des Conficker-Wurms, weil sie den nötigen Security-Patch von Microsoft zu spät installiert haben. Das denken zumindest 30 Prozent aller IT-Verantwortlichen, die sich an einer Web-Umfrage von Sophos beteiligt haben.

17 Prozent halten die Sicherheitslücke in Windows und damit auch Microsoft für verantwortlich für den Malware-Ausbruch. Für die Mehrheit (53 Prozent) sind die Viren-Schreiber die Hauptschuldigen. Der Computerschädling, der unter anderem eine RPC-Sicherheitslücke in Windows ausnutzt, hatte in den vergangenen Tagen weltweit etliche Millionen PCs befallen. Zu den Betroffenen zählen auch zahlreiche Unternehmen und Organisationen im deutschsprachigen Raum.
