Microsoft: Vista won't get a backdoor | |

Windows Vista won't have a backdoor that could be used by police forces to get into encrypted files, Microsoft has stressed. In February, a BBC News story suggested that the British government was in discussions with Microsoft over backdoor access to the operating system. A backdoor is a method of bypassing normal authentication to gain access to a computer without to the PC user knowing.

"Microsoft has not and will not put "backdoors" into Windows," a company representative said in a statement sent via e-mail. | ||
