Administrators Jon Posted August 22, 2015 Administrators Share Posted August 22, 2015 It will be interesting to see when someone comes out with a detailed analysis of all this (there seems to be some questions over this article). Microsoft really know how to create bad PR for themselves, don't they? I'm trying to create a "corporate" image at the moment with all the unneeded settings disabled. There are GPOs for about two privacy settings, everything is registry hacks. That's appalling.What is interesting is that 90% of this stuff existed in Windows 8.1 but because no-one ever took notice of it we didn't have these revelations.

Administrators Jon Posted August 22, 2015 Administrators Share Posted August 22, 2015 When I worked at MS we used to have to complete privacy course after privacy course each quarter. It was so important to them. I don't know what's happened.

It's a real shame. I'll be using windows 7 until it's dead and start learning some linux OS in the meantime.

iamtheky Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 (edited) Win 8.1 is pretty clean, it takes a minimal amount of effort to stop all updates from the internet in gp (stopping the calls home is still a firewall entry). The risk of them breaking everyone who whitelisted the last update address, just to trick the people who have it blocked, is minimal. As long as you are gentle, the public will give up the butt.

Sumitranjan Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 Well it is better to keep a check on the Unsuccessful Login attempts in order to keep the data secure. I had to face this problem once and got hacked. With Event Log Explorer it is easier to explore who logged on and when Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
