BranchCache Security Guide

This document provides guidance to help organizations understand and manage the security of the Microsoft® BranchCache™ feature  introduced in Microsoft Windows Server® 2008 R2 and Microsoft Windows® 7. BranchCache is a wide area network (WAN) bandwidth optimization technology. To optimize WAN bandwidth, BranchCache copies content from your main office content servers and caches the content at branch office locations, allowing client computers at branch offices to access the content locally rather than over the WAN.

A must read guide for all of them who are deploying this new feature in their Windows Server 2008 R2 and Windows 7 based infrastructure. Often during my better together session covering this particular I get lot of queries around BranchCache Security.
