April 2010 Security Bulletin Release

There is one additional item I want to mention concerning the April security updates. MS10-021 is a Windows Kernel update. You may recall that the last Kernel update, MS10-015, exposed some systems that were infected with the Alureon rootkit. For MS10-021, and for all of our Kernel updates going forward, we have included detection logic for unusual conditions or modifications to the Windows Kernel binaries. If such conditions are detected, the update will return an error to the user and fail to install. Customers who see this error should contact our Customer Service and Support team for help determining if you have malware on your system.

Additional details about this month’s bulletins can also be found on the Security Research & Defense team blog.
