Microsoft To Prioritize Security Bugs

In an effort to help customers better respond to security threats, 
Microsoft [NASDAQ:MSFT] said it will begin adding severity ratings to its 
security bulletins.

Under the new severity rating system, vulnerabilities in Microsoft's 
products will henceforth be classified as either "critical," "moderate," or 
"low," according to a document released by the company's Security Response 
Center.
