Microsoft Corp. will build software for managing identities into Windows in order to beef up security by giving users more control over their personal information, the world's largest software maker said on Tuesday. The ID technology called "info-cards" will give users more control over their own personal information in order to shop and access services online, said Michael Stephenson, director in Microsoft's Windows Server division.

Microsoft is currently working on a new Internet Explorer Web browser and version of Windows, code-named Longhorn, but Stephenson declined to say whether "info-cards" would be built into the current Windows XP version or Longhorn. "We're trying to make the end-user experience as simple as possible," Stephenson said, adding that Microsoft's "goal is to make sure that this is as broadly accessible as possible." The initiative is the latest effort by the software giant to improve the reliability and security of its software.

A security vulnerability exists in the Help and Support Center function which ships with Windows XP and Windows Server 2003. The affected code is also included in all other supported Windows operating systems, although no known attack vector has been identified at this time because the HCP protocol is not supported on those platforms. The vulnerability results because a file associated with the HCP protocol contains an unchecked buffer.

Microsoft Tips Plans For Longhorn
Embedded 04/14/2005 06:58 PM
Microsoft Thursday offered some early insight into a planned embedded version of its upcoming Longhorn operating system. Called Longhorn Embedded, it's intended for use as control software in x86-based systems that aren't PCs or servers. These include systems such as retail point-of-sale terminals, thin clients, advanced cable set-top boxes, and single-board-computers used in everything from ATMs and vending machines to factory-floor controllers. Microsoft is expected to provide the first public details of its plans for Longhorn Embedded to developers in May at its Microsoft Mobility and Embedded DevCon in Las Vegas.
