A Hot mess

The headlines about failure on MS systems (with 'flare') keep coming. Worldwide outages are exposing issues with software updates. But can updates create vulnerability, or is it merely a refusal of organizations to succumb to the latest upgrade pricing? As the list of hits grows, time will tell how exposed U.S.-based organizations are.

For now, it's a hot mess for the travel and banking industries at a time when consumers are already pulling back on spending and borrowing.

Some notable trends this week...

  • An excellent week for the payments sector
