BIGGISH BLUE has slagged off corporations for not doing more to protect their servers against hackers.

In the latest IBM X-Force report said that websites are the "Achilles' heel" for IT security because they are a big target and Corporations use off the shelf software which is more full of holes than Swiss cheese porn flick.

As a result attacks seen at the end of 2008 were 30 times greater than the number of attacks seen early in the summer months. µ

Are IBM selling a "secure" off the shelf website tool?

Corp bosses are sort of stuck hiring someone to do a job which the boss knows very little about. Who is the boss gonna call? "Networking", or friends and aquaintences as people used to call them, might be of help here. It's a bit like looking for a builder, plumber, electrician, painter. Would you pick one of them with the flashiest advert, or the one that a couple of friends said was good?
