Microsoft’s Forefront security product family has faced lots of delays and roadmap shifts over the past year-plus.
Last we heard, Stirling — the next generation of the Forefront Protection Suite — was going to be delivered in a staggered fashion between 2009 and 2010 because of some late-in-the-game product plan changes. (This was the second delay for the suite last year.) As of late last year, Forefront Protection Manager (FPM), technology for managing/security Exchange Server and SharePoint Server, was reset to be a first half 2010 deliverable.
