Due to much criticism Microsoft received over the years regarding Windows security, the company has taken extra care to strengthen security in the new Windows Vista operating system, due for release to the general public in January 2007. Designed for the average computer user, this seminar will review some of the new and enhanced features Vista provides to keep your computer safe from attacks and other threats. Note: MIT does not recommend upgrading to Vista until Summer 2007 due to incompatibility with certain MIT supported software.
