  Protecting the enterprise in a Vista environment
Time: 00:07 EST/05:07 GMT | News Source: *Linked Within Post* | Posted By: Kenneth van Surksum

Microsoft’s new Vista operating system has placed more emphasis on security than any previous version of Windows.

It has added features like the Security Centre, which monitors the operating system’s multiple layers of security in the background, user account control, a built-in firewall, kernel patch protection and even a kernel security component requiring that any driver running at kernel level by tested and digitally signed by Microsoft.

These Vista security enhancements may have raised the bar, but at what cost?

The security aspects of the operating system have been improved at the price of complexity and in some respects changed for the sake of change - causing what is known as “code bloat.” Simply, there are just too many lines of code!
