[Moderator: Looks like the end of the Vulnerability Database Reviews.
 Ended up getting 3 more URLs as you probably noticed, giving 17 sites
 reviewed. As usual, feel free to give feedback on any of the posts or any
 additional URLs that I missed. 

 Because of the positive feedback so far, I thought about what else
 I could review that would help out admins and security personell in
 their job of keeping up to date on security awareness. The first
 thing that hit me was 'advisories'. There are quite a few advisory
 services out there, each with different information and format.
 
 Unless I get a lot of "don't"s from the list, I plan on doing short
 reviews/information posts on the various advisories out there. 
 Information included would be how long they have been going, how
 to subscribe to them, where to find back advisories, are they still
 around, and more.

 To give you an idea of which advisories (and maybe show that there
 are a lot more out there than you think), here is a short list of
 the ones that come to mind:

 8lgm, ADM, Assist, Auscert, Axents, Caldera, CERT, Cheyenne, CIAC,
 Corinne Posse, CSL, DEC, DiS, Dunkel, EMH, FreeBSD, HP Alert, 
 IBM-ERS, ISS, KSRT, l0pht, OpenBSD, Plaguez, r00t, r9, SERT,
 SGI, SMS, and SNI.

 Along with these are a few others that I know I have, but can't
 think of the name right off. Rather than do a single post about each
 advisory, I will look at putting a couple per post and listing each
 in the subject line.

 Feedback welcomed :) ]
