Enterprises will appreciate the reduced security risks, including improved protection from threats introduced by mobile and wireless users. Systems administrators will find Windows Vista easier to manage, with the ability to create granular security policies for network traffic as well as QoS for mission-critical apps. These new features let a person do more with his network infrastructure while minimizing administration effort and maximizing end-user productivity.
