Microsoft will stop issuing detailed security bulletins, which for nearly 20 years have been a feature of Microsoft’s patch disclosure policies since at least 1998. Microsoft announced the demise of bulletins in November, saying then that the last would be posted with January’s Patch Tuesday. The new database of support documents will replace the bulletins; that database has been available, albeit in preview, since November on the portal Microsoft dubbed the “Security Updates Guide” Microsoft has not met that mark; some information found in the January Patch Tuesday bulletins was missing from the appropriate entries in the online database.”]
