Microsoft Delays Stirling Security Suite

An anonymous reader writes "Microsoft's long-awaited integrated security suite, codenamed Stirling, has been delayed by months and will now not be available until the fourth quarter 2009. According to Microsoft, the delay is due to the further development of the firm's behaviour based technology, the Dynamic Signature Service, 'to help deliver more comprehensive endpoint protection for zero-day attacks,' and efforts to add interoperability with third-party solutions, as per customer requests. When completed, the suite will combine a number of tools, such as the ISA Server and multiple Forefront products."

    it's not their main focus. When you've got such big priorities as Windows

    This is nonsense! They make an OS so security is their business.

    MS need to secure their software, and all these bottom feeds like Mcafee and Symantec need to die.
