Abstract: The Forefront vision begins at the operating system. With the release of Windows XP SP2 and Windows Server 2003 SP1, vulnerabilities have been greatly reduced, and the releases of Windows Vista and Windows ââ,¬Å"Longhornââ,¬Â
Server are centered on robust security. Forefront security products augment the security of these operating systems by providing additional layers of security designed to protect information and control access to business-critical resources and information. The security of this information is further enhanced through robust digital rights management, ensuring that document-specific security and policy compliance is assured even if those documents get into unauthorized hands.

Microsoftââ,¬â,,¢s security products are tied together through a powerful identity management infrastructure that provides fine levels of granularity and control.
This control is further enabled by a broad set of management and reporting capabilities that offer robust event collection, analysis, and reporting, as well as the tools to create and enforce security best practices. Finally, Microsoft offers a wide array of technical and industry-specific guidance to help businesses configure their security products correctly and effectively.
