It was also reported that the new product is distributed for free. The only requirement: the operating system, under which installed Microsoft Essentials Security, must be genuine. That is, the appropriate test to withstand the Microsoft. However, this is not surprising. Even the updates for pirated Windows will not be installed.
MSE - not the first experience of Microsoft in the field of information security. If we talk about client applications, many remember the service OneCare, as well as anti-spyware program Windows Defender. However, both products are not sufficiently known. As for the corporate segment, there is Microsoft offers a package of Forefront Client Security, which, of course, already subject to a fee basis.
But who will compete Microsoft Essentials Security? It is clear that in the first place, free antivirus. However, such programs are not so much. Development of anti-virus - a process quite laborious, and requires sustained financial and human resources. In this segment of the MSE has an opportunity to become a leader, because a number of parameters it surpasses free antivirus programs. First of all - to the promised update frequency. The new base for the product are produced every few days, just as happens in the market of commercial products.
In addition, due to low system requirements of Microsoft's new antivirus certainly interested users netbooks.
But whether Microsoft Essentials Security to compete with commercial products? I think that the well-established brands do not have to worry. They always find to get around than the free product. What do you think?
