ALERTS
As part of the Microsoft Security Bulletin Summary for November 2009, Microsoft released 6 patch updates to address 15 vulnerabilities that affect Windows and Windows Server.

Perimeter’s Patch Management customers are already protected from these vulnerabilities and have the latest patches installed.
