Seattle: Cyber threats like Flame are too big and too advanced for even the 
most security savvy of companies to take on alone, according to Microsoft 
Trustworthy Computing senior director Mike Reavey. 

Reavy claimed that claimed that the sheer complexity of many of the advanced 
cyber threats currently being discovered proves that companies need to begin 
working together. 

"Threats are getting more sophisticated and complicated and we need to change 
and adapt," said Reavey. "We can't stop these things by ourselves.We need a 
community of defenders." 

Microsoft's senior director went on to clarify that the company could not 
disclose further details regarding how Flame had managed to mimic the companies 
update certificates. [SNIP]
