In the continuing effort to improve computer and network security, Microsoft has developed the End to End Trust initiative. As a part of that initiative, Microsoft is seeking input from users and information security professionals to help answer the questions that need to be addressed in order to evolve computer security such as How should we enhance security on the Internet without undermining social values, such as privacy and anonymity? There are more questions to be answered in the End to End Trust Forums. Scott Charney, Microsoft's Corporate Vice President of Trustworthy Computing, has developed a white paper entitled Establishing End to End Trust which provides more details on Microsoft's vision.
While it is not beyond the stretch of a reasonable person's imagination that a giant of the industry would want to keep it's users secure. The employees and designers of microsoft have showed a lack of willingness to address serious security issues, and wrap every tiny piece of security as the next big step in computing. Rather than the required software that all of this should have been back in Windows 98. It seems that every time Microsoft attempts security, it undoubtedly blows up in it's face. So I would encourage you to voice your opinion to microsoft- Let them know you value your security, as well as your wallet.
