Microsoft Sways Black Hatters with Vista Security Pledge
Monday, August 7th, 2006
When Microsoft launched its Trustworthy Computing initiative in 2002, many industry watchers 
doubted the seriousness of the software giant’s pledge to improve the security of its products.
As the company prepares to release its Vista operating system in 2007, attendees of the Black Hat security conference said that they’re now convinced the company has made significant progress to that end.
John Lambert, group manager of Microsoft’s Security Engineering and Communications Group, gave show attendees a comprehensive overview of the security procedures that the Redmond, Wash., software maker has employed in developing Vista here on Aug. 3.
Among the topics Lambert shared about the much-awaited revamp of the Windows operating system were specific details of the work done under its SDL (Secure Development Lifecycle) project, which is aimed at eliminating potential vulnerabilities in the software’s code before Vista is shipped to customers.
