Microsoft has leaked information once again about "NT becoming pure
microkernel" in a new step to make "harder" exploitation (they
believe). The Redmond based company has revealed it's future plans
for the NT operating system family. As you know, Windows NT is a
Hybrid operating system as opossed to linux, which is a monolitic
OS with loadable modules (which makes it easier to exploit kernel
level vulnerabilities, btw).
Once again, they believe that "copying" old (already bypassed)
technologies they can solve the fiasco they have in their mad
source code...
Microkernel != strong_security
More information on this subject in a short while...
