300k Servers Still Vulnerable to Heartbleed

Months after all of the publicity surrounding the Heartbleed security exploit has died down, barely half of the estimated 600K servers have been patched to protect sensitive data according to a new report from the Errata Security blog.

What this means, oversimplified: while almost all of the Internet’s most popular sites (the top 1000 or so — the biggest, most obvious targets for attackers) are no longer vulnerable, lots and lots of smaller sites/systems are still at risk.
