Business Ready Security
Help securely enable business by managing risk and empowering
people
As businesses look to drive growth, they need to increase collaboration, sharing and
access to information but must do so while protecting their assets and infrastructure.
Frequently this must be addressed in the context of shrinking budgets and increased
regulatory pressure. In response to these business challenges and opportunities,
Microsoft is taking a fundamentally different approach to security. We call it business
ready security.

The Convergence of Desktop Security
and Management
Desktop management and security have traditionally existed as two separate
disciplines. Yet both play a central role in keeping users safe and productive.
Management ensures proper system configuration, deploys patches against
vulnerabilities, and delivers necessary security updates. Security provides critical
threat detection, outbreak response, and system remediation.
Forefront Endpoint Protection 2010 enables businesses to align security and
management to improve endpoint protection while greatly reducing operational costs.
It builds on System Center Configuration Manager 2007 R2 and R3, allowing customers
to use their existing client management infrastructure to deploy and manage endpoint
protection. This shared infrastructure helps reduce ownership costs while providing
improved visibility and control over endpoint management and security.

quietly in the background and schedules a scan when your computer is most
