Microsoft security strategy under attack | |

'Don't worry about AV vendors, sort your own products out...' says Gartner analyst Microsoft should be concentrating on securing Windows so it no longer needs an antivirus product instead of trying to squeeze established AV vendors out of the market, according to Gartner. Microsoft has bought two antivirus companies and an anti-spyware company - the latter acquisition has already produced an anti-spyware application for Windows - since Bill Gates launched the Trustworthy Computing Initiative, which changed coding practices to make security Microsoft's first priority. However, Gartner analyst Neil MacDonald said in an advisory on Friday that Microsoft has "missed an opportunity" to clarify its position in the security market by not stating its intentions. He said the company needs to "articulate whether it plans to be a leader in consumer and enterprise security solutions across desktop, server and server gateway". | ||
