Microsoft delays 'Stirling' security suite

ENT News | at | by Mike

Microsoft has delayed the release of an upcoming enterprise security suite that integrates Microsoft Forefront security solutions, the company announced late last week.

The suite, code-named "Stirling," is designed to address various aspects of enterprise security, including "endpoint, messaging and collaboration, and network protection," according to the Forefront team blog. It will also have a management console for centralized security administration.

Microsoft attributed the delay to customer requests for interoperability with third-party security packages, according to the blog.
