Microsoft Tests Security for SharePoint
2 Comments
Microsoft has released a beta version of its Forefront Security for SharePoint product, part of the company's new lineup of security tools for businesses. The application is designed for Office SharePoint Server 2007 and SharePoint Services 3.0, due out early next year with Office 2007.
The technology is essentially a new iteration of Antigen for SharePoint Server, which Microsoft acquired from Sybari Software in 2005. Microsoft has implemented five antivirus engines into the software, along with improved performance and simplified management tools. Pricing has not yet been established, but the beta release is available now free of charge.
