Microsoft Forefront is an attempt by Microsoft to create a comprehensive line of business security products to provide greater protection and control through integration with existing Microsoft IT infrastructure and through simplified deployment, management, and analysis on Microsoft platforms.
The Microsoft Forefront line of business security products is designed to help provide protection for client machines, server applications and the network edge.
Forefront includes updates to Microsoft products such as Antigen and ISAS, and also adds a new product offering, Microsoft Forefront Client Security.
Microsoft Forefront Client Security attempts to provide unified malware protection for business desktops, laptops, and server operating systems that is easier for Windows admins to manage and control.
