Forefront Protection Manager ("Stirling")!!!

Stirling is almost here, after waiting for this new innovative product from Microsoft (Originating in MSReseach), our wait is about to end.

Imagine a central system; consolidating all your potential threats coming from all the elements of the Forefront Security suite, Microsoft calls this Security Assessment Sharing (SAS) where each individual component has an agent that uses analytics to generate security assessments.

As you know the forefront suite, consists of Client Security, Server Security (for Exchange, Sharepoint, OCS), TMG (ISA Next) and UAG (IAG Next)…all these components report to the central concentrator for correlation and response. With the addition of NIS (Network Inspection System) into the mix, this is looking to be an excellent addition to an organizations SIM / SOC.

Once an attack is suspected or actually happens, the system can notify or take action! Being empowered to take action and to mitigate attacks that stem in protocol and OS vulnerabilities immediately, giving you the needed time to update your systems.

Take a look at some of the reports that “Stirling” can provide:
