Microsoft has released a technical case study of its internal security procedures, in which it spells out a three-pronged approach to thwarting malicious hacker attacks and urges enterprise admins to spend more time anticipating and preventing attacks.
The company chided enterprises for adopting a reactionary approach to malicious attacks instead of spending more time anticipating and preventing attacks. "With the vast number of tools available to attackers today, an active approach is needed to help secure networks from exploits. It is less expensive to reduce the risk beforehand than to mitigate the damage afterward."
