Yui Kee has developed its' own website monitoring software to address this problem. Currently configured to monitor nine major anti-virus websites, it picks out the latest virus information from each and composes a short email or SMS message when it recognises a significant change. The message is brief, it only contains the site, the virus name and an indication of the severity (check the abbreviations used). However, this is sufficient for an Information Security Manager to understand the basic situation, and know where to get more details. Thus alerted, the IS Manager can take a variety of actions: start downloading the new update, reconfigure the incoming email filters, send a warning email to staff, etc.
Why monitor so many sites? The site that has the first alert for one virus might be last for another, and some sites are more prone to inflating the severity rating they assign, so multiple alerts are a backup and confirm the importance.
