I have read that Skype uses a peer to peer model that makes it inherently unsafe from a security standpoint. The article even listed a number of incedents where viruses/malware/trojans were spread via Skype. However, that information was published before Microsoft purchased the company and began integrating it into all their products. I just read that Skype will come with Windows 8.1. I know that there is now some group policy integration to control the use of super-nodes on your network., but now that Microsoft owns it, how has it changed to make it safer to use on corporate networks?
