Builds on Windows Vista Security Foundation
Windows 7 builds on the proven security lineage of Windows Vista, retaining the multiple layers
of defense that have made it the most secure version of the Windows client to date. Windows 7
is supported by Windows Update, Automatic Updates, Microsoft Updates, and a Software Update
Validation program that provides rigorous testing of updates before they‘re released to customers. In
addition, Windows 7 is engineered to support Common Criteria requirements to achieve Evaluation
Assurance Level 4 certi cation and Federal Information Processing Standard 140-2 evaluation.
Multiple Active Firewall Pro les
When rewall policy is based on the type of network connection established—such as Home, Work,
Public, or Domain (which is a fourth, hidden type)—it can be dif cult to deal with unnecessary security
obstacles. Windows 7 supports multiple active rewall policies, which allows user PCs to obtain and
apply domain rewall pro le infor-
mation regardless of other networks
that may be active on the PC. As a
result, you can simplify connectivity
and security policies by maintaining
a single set of rules for both remote
clients and clients that are physically
connected to the corporate network.
