While it's not exactly a great situation to be in, it is manageable
in some environments to some extent provided you take the proper
precautions and provided you realise that your old systems are
hopelessly insecure.

My real problem is with those people who think they can treat their
old VMS systems as if they were modern secured systems because in
their mindset "those security issues that other operating systems
have don't affect VMS so I don't have to worry about them". :-(

Those are the people who need to be woken up before the third party
security researchers do it for them.

Simon.
