As CNET's former resident security expert, Robert Vamosi has been interviewed on the BBC, CNN, MSNBC, and other outlets to share his knowledge about the latest online threats and to offer advice on personal and corporate security.
Security researchers at Secunia have reported the first vulnerability in the newly released Microsoft Internet Explorer 7 browser. Internet E 6 is also affected.
