Coping With IE Until 'Aurora' Fix

DarkReading suggests 7 steps to protect your organization from 'Aurora' style attacks on Internet Explorer until Microsoft releases a patch. To review, versions of IE from 6 and up are vulnerable and were exploited to obtain proprietary information in a targeted attack on Google. The actual attack was on IE 6, although versions subsequent are also believed to be vulnerable. Microsoft is scheduled to release a patch tomorrow, January 21st. That's probably faster than you can switch your users to Firefox.
