“While most companies are beefing up their IT staff to
combat increasingly viscous worms and viruses, most are leaving the
end users out of the loop.“
“During the past month there have been a host of VBS worms
released. The worms have ranged from fairly mild to down right
devastating. These new methods of tricking users into opening
attachments highlight the need for up to date computer training for
end users. With the right training I doubt that these types of
attacks would have much effect.”
“In fact, about ninety percent of all computer problems occur
because the end user has made a bad decision. Be it an accidentally
opened file, the careless deletion of a file, or the installation
of a poorly written software package, the end user is ultimately
the culprit.”
