My Group - Microsoft Solutions for Security

You may be wondering about the subtitle for this blog: "Life and Security at Microsoft".  So far, I've covered a lot of life, but what about security?

I have joined a team called "Microsoft Solutions for Security".  We are a relatively small but growing group at Microsoft dedicated to providing valuable security guidance.  My team works very closely with Microsoft Consulting Services, the Security Center of Excellence, and most importantly Microsoft customers to create valuable security guidance documents.  These documents cover a variety of topics.  Some of the guidance we have created so far includes hardening guides (such as the Securing Windows XP guide at https://www.microsoft.com/security/guidance/prodtech/WindowsXP.mspx) and an anti-virus document (available for download at https://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=F24A8CE3-63A4-45A1-97B6-3FEF52F63ABB&displaylang=en).

My goal in life is to provide Microsoft's customers (and everyone else for that matter) with quality security guidance that is directly applicable in their environments.  And that is where you come in.  If you have any security topics that you would like to see MSS cover in the future, please let me know what they are.  I can't make any promises, but input from customers is what makes Microsoft tick.
