C|Net | at | by Mike
Microsoft plans to focus on rapid acquisitions to quickly build its security capabilities, the company said this week.
Recent acquisitions, such as Winternals and virtual private network specialist Whale Communications, will help Microsoft build a comprehensive range of integrated services that cover every aspect of security, according to Gopal Kutwaroo, Microsoft's U.K. security product manager.
"Our strategy is clear. We don't do point solutions but are trying to create integrative services, with products and solutions that work right across the computing environment," Kutwaroo said.
