Hello!

We’re proud today with this significant milestone to both Microsoft and you, our customers, in the mission we undertook of converging client management and security, providing effective endpoint protection across all market segments, consumer through enterprise. Shipping FEP 2010 and MSE 2010 products completes a fast development cycle, with tremendous focus on customers, agile engineering, and robust quality!

Today we give you both Forefront Endpoint Protection 2010, a fully integrated antimalware and security management platform that leverages the robust functionality of System Center Configuration Manager 2007, and the latest version of Microsoft Security Essentials, a fully featured antimalware and security protection client for the consumer audience.

Based on customer feedback, we are also releasing FEP 2010 Security Management Pack (FEP SMP). FEP SMP includes real-time server monitoring (through System Center Operations Manager) and optimized server security settings, with the top 16 Microsoft server workloads and roles supported out-of-the-box!

We’ve got resources available for you today:

Thanks!

The Forefront Endpoint Protection Team
