Η Microsoft believes that its customers no longer want these kinds of announcements, so starting this month the company will not publicly announce thealerts security that he will do on Tuesdays. Will post for the upcoming ones patches only through private channels and only to clients who have paid support contracts.
Η Microsoft uses these advance security alerts to let users know that their systems will be upgraded and to prepare system administrators for the upcoming Tuesday Patch. These notifications were usually released on the Thursday before the Tuesday Patch, which takes place every second Tuesday of each month. The first advance notice was issued 10 years ago, when Microsoft officially introduced Tuesday's Patch program.
In an article published this morning, Microsoft said its decision to go ahead with the paid early warning service, and is based mainly on choice of users who no longer wish to receive this information.
There is a Microsoft channel, the myBulletins, που περιέχει τις σχετικές ενημερώσεις των Patch της Τρίτης και είναι ακόμα διαθέσιμο. Η εταιρεία αναφέρει ότι ο καθένας θα μπορεί να χρησιμοποιεί το εν λόγω κανάλι, το οποίο είναι μια υπηρεσία που παρέχει λεπτομέρειες για κάθε χρήστη, και βασίζεται στο software running on his computer.
