Security Compliance Manager Baseline Beta review program

The latest release in the Security Compliance Manager Baseline Beta review program is a new security baseline for Microsoft® Exchange Server 2007. This resource is an exciting new addition to the security baselines released earlier this year that can be used in combination with the Security Compliance Manager tool. The Exchange Server 2007 Security Baseline represents some of the most prescriptive and detailed security guidance to date from Microsoft for Exchange Server 2007. It works within the Security Compliance Manager tool, which allows you to use automated tools based on Windows PowerShellTM to set, customize, and monitor computers running Exchange Server 2007 for compliance with organizational policies.

This baseline will be available for beta review through September 13, 2010 (US Pacific Time)
