New Microsoft Security Site for Governments
A new Security section has been added to the government site on Microsoft.com. The site consolidates a number of relevant tools, solutions, case studies, and links relevant to Public Sector organizations. Several of the solutions call for specific mentions here:
Federal Desktop Core Configuration (FDCC)
Federal Server Core Configuration (FSCC)
Infrastructure Optimization (IO)
The site also includes a brief interview with a colleague of mine in the Federal practice, Bill Billings, the Chief Security Officer of Microsoft Federal. In the video Bill discusses some of the cyber security priorities of the Obama administration and the areas Microsoft is working with the administration.
