While installing and configuring some new software on my Windows server, I noticed that the IT department forgot to remove some previous software components from my server.
I remember seeing the notice that the software was being uninstalled and replaced by another package.
I could have removed the left over components myself (I am admin on the server), but I wanted to see if they would ever be removed. Did the Windows server team forget about this, or did the team not concern itself with such things? Maybe the procedures don’t include a process to ensure all components are removed.
I waited about 2 months, but the components were not removed.
My Blog Comment Deleted!
I left what I considered a thoughtful comment on another security blog, but my comment was deleted. Denied. Ignored.
Read about what happened in Creating a Culture of Security and my thoughts about it, which I added at the end of that post.
Ever had a similar experience? Think I got carried away? Afraid to leave a comment of your own? Let me know about it here.
