Moving to the Forefront
I'm not a fan of Microsoft's entry into the security market, at least when it
moves into areas that were pioneered by third parties that fixed holes Microsoft
should have plugged in the first place. But it is hard to argue with a complete
solution, no matter who it comes from, and that is what Microsoft's Forefront
is fast becoming.
At the recent RSA security show in San Francisco, Microsoft announced a management
console to watch and control a variety of Forefront tools, whether they
protect desktops, Exchange or SharePoint.
