Microsoft rewarded for security failures with another US Government contract

Why must the government and almost every corporation continue to reward Microsoft for their horseshit?

Emm, they don't, but the price to switching is too high.

If everyone in their formative years would use Linux, then it would be a different story. But... they don't, so it requires reeducation. I think Mexico attempted it and I hope they were successful.

Because a top-down management structure has advantages in delivery accountability, regulatory alignment, and scoping of risk.

A successful software implementation requires a lot more than just software.

Tearing out all MS software at any large organization would involve quite a bit of compromise and many opportunities for failure.

Do you think any other large software vendor is pure as the driven snow?

Oracle?

Google?

Broadcom?
