The MAS Position on Microsoft Vulnerabilities

 

Medical Automation Systems reviews all Microsoft security patches when they are released. The review of latest Security Bulletins is currently underway. Microsoft rates some of these as 'critical' but the vulnerabilities may in fact pose no risk to the RALS system if customers adhere to the intended use of RALS.

 

MS Patches NOT Critical to RALS Functionality If MAS determines that the vulnerability as described in a Microsoft bulletin should not adversely affect the RALS functionality when the system is used as intended, the security patch will be tested and included in the next routine product version release.  Should the user apply the patches, MAS cannot guarantee or warrant its operation or impact on the RALS system.  In this situation there will be no routine customer notification. 

MS Patches Critical to RALS Functionality If it is determined that the security vulnerability as described in a Microsoft bulletin is critical to the RALS functionality, MAS will notify customers via a broadcast email from SecurityUpdates@rals.com and by notice on the MAS website http://www.rals.com. 

MAS will then begin immediate regression testing of the security patch against all RALS products and versions and notify customers via broadcast email and on the MAS website when that testing is complete, and provide measures for applying the corresponding patches, as available.

Customers may choose to install the security patches without waiting for the testing to be completed.  However, unless MAS has successfully tested a patch MAS cannot warranty or guarantee its operation or impact with the RALS system
