The Internet Research Group (NRG) today announced that it has published its latest report on Microsoft's security strategy.
"Bill Gates gave the opening keynote at February's RSA 2005 conference and said that Microsoft was going to spend roughly $2B a year in R&D directly related to security," noted Peter Christy, co-founder of IRG and author of the report. "This is the largest single R&D investment in the information technology security industry. Where will this money be spent and what is the impact on vendors, enterprises and consumers?"
This new study titled The Microsoft Security Strategy describes the overarching security fabric that Microsoft is planning, the high-level motivations behind this plan and the potential change this will have on the way businesses, consumers and competitors view computer and network security. "Gates and Ballmer are quite articulate about their customers' security needs and issues," noted Christy. "In the past when Microsoft finally understood an issue they ended up doing interesting things. We expect that to be the case here."
The study is available now. The Table of Contents may be downloaded from IRG's Website.
