Microsoft has announced that security is the number one priority for its Windows Server group. It is also the reason that the company continues to invest in security, despite the recent attacks.
In this regard, Microsoft is in a very similar position as Google. At least with Google, they keep a close eye on what’s going on with their software, but are very much aware that they need to do more. Microsoft is still in the early days of this change, but they’re making progress. They’re actively working with security vendors to try to make sure that people can get the best security updates for Windows Server.
It’s not that Microsoft hasn’t moved the ball forward. The problem is that they continue to be on the back foot. With Windows Server, Microsoft has to get serious about the security aspects. Right now their focus is on Windows 8.1, but soon they plan to release Windows Server 2012. This is an effort in which they believe they can do a lot more than just provide security updates.
As of now, Microsoft’s security team claims to have more than 13,000 security updates for Windows Server. That’s a lot, but there are still over 11,000 security fixes that are awaiting release to address security hole and exploits that have been discovered in the past year. The security team itself is actually quite small with only 16 people working full time to release security updates for Windows Server.
Microsoft claims that the servers that they deploy are the only ones that can provide a complete end to end security solution, and they are working on a new version of Windows Server that will make it possible for any company to deploy such a solution.
This is a huge step forward for Microsoft. They’ve already released Office.com, and now they can say that they have a security solution that will make a company that’s not already using Windows Server an option for them. It’s still not as far as they can go, of course. Microsoft still has to build their own infrastructure to deliver all their security updates. The new Server version will allow them to do this much easier.
The Microsoft security solution will be called the ‘internet security acceleration server’ or ISAS. The idea is that it will allow companies to deploy security solutions such as the Internet Security Essentials or Internet Security Essentials for Windows Server. This will make it easier for companies to deploy these services by allowing them to simply make sure they’re running the latest version of an app that supports it.
Microsoft is not the only one that has a security solution but it is the only one that has this one. Microsoft has the security solution for Windows Server called Server Security Essentials. It allows you to install the latest version of Windows Server with the ability to secure the machine with the latest version of Windows Server Security Essentials.
It is also worth noting that Microsoft is now working on a Windows Server-based Internet Security Acceleration Server. This is a separate product, but is the same as Microsoft’s Internet Security Essentials. This product is a better solution for protecting Windows Server, but as with the Internet Security Essentials, this product will be available for Windows Server 2003 only.
Although Microsoft’s Internet Security Essentials has been around for a while, it was just recently updated and now supports Windows Server 2003. That doesn’t mean it’s a good idea to use it with Windows Server 2003, but that’s not the point. The point is that Microsoft is now working on Windows Server 2003 with the Microsoft Internet Security Essentials and you should use it. The main purpose of it is to help Windows Server 2003 protect itself and the user’s PC.
