Microsoft tests Vista against top malware threatsMicrosoft's Windows Vista operating system has been released already for businesses (and beta testers who got a free copy of Vista Ultimate/Business), but the rest of us will have to wait until January 30, 2007 to get our retail copies. Within the next year, Microsoft is projected to ship roughly 90 million copies of Vista within the first year alone. In the mean time, Microsoft has been testing Vista's defenses to the top malware threats as reported by Sophos on November 30. The results from Microsoft's internal testing were quite promising according to Jim Allchin. Testing showed that when using a clean install of Windows Vista with no third-party security applications installed, Vista was immune to all ten of the malware threats. |
