I work for the University of Missouri and we are currently using Forefront Endpoint Protection 2012 and it works pretty well for our situation. I worked at another University where they were using Avast for their environment. It's free as well, but only under 1000 clients (I believe).

If so, how are you feeling about the Microsoft solution? Or, if you thought about it and decided not to do it, I'm also interested in the rationale/any documentation you might have on that decision. (Obviously, the cost savings would be nice, but I'm not too impressed by what I see from MS. Just wondering if I'm missing something) Thanks -- Ed Zawacki Chief Information Security and Privacy Officer Academic Computing and Communications Center University of Illinois at Chicago (312) 996-0658 General Security Line: (312) 432-0074
