Vista Arriving With New Security Features
Saturday, November 11th, 2006

Vista as soon as it arrives this month. More surprising may be Vista fina

Microsoft has pounded away on the security drum, and claimed this version will be its most secure operating system. Sven Hallauer, a Microsoft Release Manager overseeing Vista’s departure echoed that in a statement describing out of the box security and other features of the OS.
He noted how the Secure Development Lifecycle process used to manage Vista’s development used automated tools to proactively find problems in code before it could enter the new operating system.
