Submission + - How IKEA Patched Shellshock (eweek.com)
jones_supa writes: Magnus Glantz, IT manager at IKEA, revealed that the Swedish furniture retailer has more than 3,500 Red Hat Enterprise Linux servers. With Shellshock, every single one of those servers needed to be patched to limit the risk of exploitation. So how did IKEA patch all those servers? Glantz showed a simple one-line Linux command and then jokingly walked away from the podium stating "That's it, thanks for coming". On a more serious note, he said that it took approximately two and half hours to upgrade their infrastructure to defend against Shellshock. The key was having a consistent approach to system management, which begins with a well-defined Standard Operating Environment (SOE). Additionally, Glantz has defined a lifecycle management plan that describes the lifecycle of how Linux will be used at Ikea for the next seven years.

I have a big problem with keeping in mind all those human interactions. This number of 150 seems too big for me. Although I have no problems with new acquaintances, it's difficult to me to keep them all in mind. Maybe it's a reason why I don't as interested in facebook, twitter and all that as all people are.
