My TechNet Q&A - Montreal

Damir and I have returned from Montreal after dropping in for the My TechNet Security tour.  We had a great time at the Montreal IT Professionals Group talking about data security tools in XP and Vista and then a packed house at the event on Thursday.  Again there were some great questions at both sessions and some required links to additional resources.

We had a lot of great questions on Encrypted File System (aka EFS) and you can find out more at....

We also had a lot of questions on Bitlocker Drive Encryption and there are a few links to some great information I'd like to share....

We also got a lot of similar questions about SharePoint groups and SQL Server 2005 encryption and you can find that information in this post from Ottawa & St. John's.  Also be sure to check out the Winnipeg Q&A for information on customizing OWA and Forms-Based Authentication!
