Default Heartbleed bug still compromises websites

A bug that compromised systems in April this year still poses threats despite patches made to cover the security hole.

According to researchers at the University of Maryland, website administrators are still at threat from the Heartbleed bug.

The malefic sofware compromises the OpenSSL (secure sockets layer) making it possible for those with a malicious bent to read the memory of systems.
