  Security in Windows 7: Setup
Time: 06:44 EST/11:44 GMT | News Source: PC Magazine | Posted By: Kenneth van Surksum

Microsoft tells us that "Windows 7 improves security, reliability, and performance while helping to optimize PC management." That sounds good! Of course, the early press about Vista included a lot of security hype, too, and much of that went by the wayside as actual code started to appear. Still, the goals for Windows 7 sound a little less pie-in-the-sky than the Three Magical Pillars of Trusted Computing, or whatever it was supposed to be with Vista. To see if Windows 7 looks likelier to live up to its own PR, I loaded up a pre-beta of the OS to take a look at its security features. Note: Before doing so, I carefully made an image backup of the existing Vista installation so that I could escape from Windows 7 when finishedjust in case.

PC Labs Security Analyst Neil J. Rubenking takes a look at the early beta of Windows 7 in the first of a four-part series about the state of security in Microsoft's next OS.
