In a Tuesday keynote speech at RSA 2008, Craig Mundie, Microsoft (NSDQ:MSFT)'s chief research and strategy officer, said the software giant has met the initial challenges of trust and security and is now shifting its focus to building a 'trusted stack' of software that encompasses not just the OS, but also devices, applications, identity, and data integrity.
"Today we are in a transitional situation at Microsoft. We moving beyond the first generation of trust and security and moving into the trusted stack," said Mundie.
