Windows 95/98: Microsoft released Windows 95 on August 24, 1995. The operating system had a graphical interface and was designed to run on relatively inexpensive computers ). The release was supported with a heavy marketing push, and within a very short time, it became the most successful operating system ever produced, and drove most other operating systems out of the market. Windows 95 was designed primarily as a stand-alone singleuser desktop operating system and therefore had almost no security precautions. Most users ran Windows 95 without passwords and most applications ran on Windows 95 with administrative privileges for convenience. However, Windows 95 supported TCP/IP, thereby bringing TCP/ IP into mainstream businesses. This combination of a security-agnostic networking technology (TCP/IP) combined with an equally security-agnostic business desktop created a fertile environment for information security compromises to fl ourish. In talks, security experts sometimes refer to this environment as the source of the information security profession. 9 Even the introduction of Windows 98 on June 25, 1998, made no change to the basic security design of Windows desktops.
