Windows 7 Activation Microsoft 'Oxygen' security-m

Microsoft has hired protection professional Mark Curphey,Office 2010 Product Key, the former Chief Technologies Officer of SourceClear,Windows 7 Ultimate Key, who is bringing with him to Microsoft the “Oxygen” safety platform and security-lifecycle applications he had been developing.Curphey is joining the company as a member of the Application, Consulting and Engineering (ACE) team. Microsoft noted Curphey;s hiring on the ACE Team Blog on October 8. Curphey founded OWASP, the Open Web Application Project. He left FoundStone,Office 2007 Product Key, a protection consultancy purchased by McAfee in 2004,Windows 7 Activation, to form SourceClear. After realizing getting venture funding in the UK would be tough, Curphey said he decided to join forces with Microsoft to build the platform. Exactly what is Oxygen? Curphey described it as “ERP for Information Safety, the security management equivalent of what Visual Studio Team System is to software development or in more general terms an information safety specific Governance Risk and Compliance platform.”My interpretation: It sounds like Oxygen might take the form of security guidance and management for line-of-business apps.I asked Microsoft for more information on how Oxygen will fit into its protection line-up and when a platform like Oxygen is likely to take its first public breath. No word back so far.Ed Bellis, Chief Information Safety Officer with Orbitz Worldwide blogged about the Curphey news and said it was a big win for Microsoft:“A few years ago I never would have imagined writing this, but it has become very apparent that Microsoft is a serious security company. Sure they have many issues to deal with,Office 2010 Key, but doesn’t any company of this size?”What;s your take: Is Microsoft a credible safety player these days?(”Breathe… . Image by Lori Greig.
