Another Redmond Reorg

Last week I told you about a reorg in Microsoft's entertainment group. Today I'm going to tell you about some tweaks to the Server and Tools division. Starting next month, endpoint security will fall under the System Center team run by Brad Anderson.

One reason for the move is the increasing integration between Forefront endpoint tools and System Center.

Are you a Forefront fan or foe? Answer me this at [email protected].
