Australian Customs Service Secures PCs and National Borders With Windows Vista
Overview The Australian Customs Service (ACS) uses a range of sophisticated techniques to protect national borders. To back this up, it maintains about 5,800 computers, including 600 notebooks, at 93 locations. However, its IT department was struggling under the burden of maintaining its desktop infrastructure and was concerned about the security of data stored on notebook computers. Working with Microsoft Services, ACS ran a pilot project to deploy Windows Vista to 50 computers and upgrade its network infrastructure to Active Directory. The mobility features of the new operating system will help mobile workers to access corporate applications securely, while Windows BitLocker Drive Encryption will help secure data stored on notebook computers.
