The Data Encryption Toolkit for Mobile PCs
The Data Encryption Toolkit for Mobile PCs provides guidance and tools to help you protect your organization's most vulnerable data -- the data stored on laptops and other mobile computers. The simple strategies outlined in this toolkit show you how to optimize two key encryption technologies already available in Microsoft Windows XP or Windows Vista: the Encrypting File System (EFS) and Microsoft BitLocker Drive Encryption (BitLocker).
Forefront Integration Kit for Network Access Protection
This Solution Accelerator is a collection of software and guidance that you can use to configure a compliance health policy for computers running Forefront Client Security. Network administrators can use this Accelerator to assess the health of these computers before they are granted network access -- and if a computer is not compliant, it can be isolated to a restricted network until its compliance state is corrected and up to date.
Antivirus Defense-in-Depth Guide
This guide describes planning and implementing a comprehensive antivirus defense for your organization. It also provides information for defense-in-depth planning and related tools to help reduce your risk of infection, and help you quickly and effectively respond to (and recover from) malware outbreaks.
Microsoft Assessment and Planning Toolkit for PC security
Download this free assessment tool to identify the security settings of your desktop computers company-wide. This toolkit helps you determine if your corporate computers are installed with antivirus and anti-spyware software, and if Windows Firewall settings are turned on.
