Government agencies are in no hurry to upgrade to Windows Vista
The Department of Transportation (DOT) and the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) of the United States are in no hurry to switch to Windows Vista, citing the compatibility problems that may arise from such a move.
“We do not allow computers with Vista to connect to our network. Currently, employees are testing applications and assessing security levels, ”said Michael Baum, a NIST spokesman.
The fact that large structures are “dragging on” the transition to the new operating system is not surprising - if we are talking about information security, then “it’s better to be outrun than to get it.” Especially since this measure is temporary.
