Food Company Improves IT Security System View and Management Using New Solution

Overview

Del Monte Foods, based in San Francisco, California, sells popular, premium-quality branded food and pet products throughout the United States. The organization's employees rely heavily on Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 and Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 for messaging and collaboration. To better protect these environments, Del Monte deployed Microsoft Forefront Security for Exchange Server and Forefront Security for SharePoint. However, the company's small IT department needed a solution that would help it better manage those products. In June 2007, Del Monte implemented Microsoft Forefront Server Security Management Console. The company's administrators now have a better view of security and can more effectively manage the infrastructure. The solution also integrates with existing Del Monte software products and will help the company save time and improve protection.
