If you are a developer looking to take advantage of cloud computing, but you haven’t yet taken the plunge, this free half-day of training is the quickest way to get up-to-speed with Microsoft’s offering; Windows Azure. We’ll take you from knowing nothing about the cloud to actually having written some code, deployed it to the cloud service and made a simple application available on the public Internet. You’ll get all the information you need to get up to speed with Windows Azure in a packaged and compressed form, ready for your consumption, without having to trawl through books, blogs and articles on your own. There will be experienced people available to guide you through each exercise. Once you have the basics in place, you’ll be off and running.

When you walk away from this bootcamp, you can either de-activate the Azure application before you leave, or leave it running so that when you get home you can continue with your Windows Azure coding adventures. In any case you will walk away with the code you’ve written on your laptop and an ability to modify it, test it locally on your laptop and deploy it to your free Windows Azure subscription any time you choose.

Desktop technology has marched on: user needs and expectations are changing; the Internet is a different place to 10 years ago and we haven't even mentioned virtualisation!

You need to think about your desktop and the infrastructure behind it. You need a modern desktop to easily take advantage of all of these technologies, and to enable your people to be productive long into the future. In this demo-filled day, we will look at how to weave technologies like Windows 7, Office 2010, the Microsoft Desktop Optimisation Pack (MDOP), and desktop virtualisation technologies into a coherent sustainable, cost-reducing desktop strategy.

How to use Team Foundation Server to Manage the SharePoint Life Cycle

5/12/2011 12:00 PM & 5/26/2011 12:00 PM Time zone: (GMT-07:00) Mountain Time (US & Canada)

SharePoint has made tremendous impact in the enterprise for several reasons –affordability, ease of implementation, and rapid application deployment opportunities. For these same reasons SharePoint has introduced risk in the organization because effective development practices are not viewed as necessary or useful for SharePoint deployments. SharePoint is a powerful platform for Rapid Application Development (RAD) and often has an even shorter lifecycle than traditional RAD projects. In this session we will discuss and demonstrate the role that TFS plays in the effective management of SharePoint implementations and custom development. Requirements, testing, version control, and deployment of custom features for SharePoint will be demonstrated using TFS and VS 2010.

How to use Team Foundation Server to Manage the SharePoint Life Cycle

6/9/2011 12:00 PM Time zone: (GMT-07:00) Mountain Time (US & Canada)

SharePoint has made tremendous impact in the enterprise for several reasons –affordability, ease of implementation, and rapid application deployment opportunities. For these same reasons SharePoint has introduced risk in the organization because effective development practices are not viewed as necessary or useful for SharePoint deployments. SharePoint is a powerful platform for Rapid Application Development (RAD) and often has an even shorter lifecycle than traditional RAD projects. In this session we will discuss and demonstrate the role that TFS plays in the effective management of SharePoint implementations and custom development. Requirements, testing, version control, and deployment of custom features for SharePoint will be demonstrated using TFS and VS 2010.

Introducing Opalis and System Center Orchestrator 2012 Beta

Opalis is an automation platform for orchestrating and integrating IT tools to drive down the cost of datacenter operations, while improving the reliability of IT processes. It enables IT organizations to automate best practices, such as those found in Microsoft Operations Framework (MOF) and Information Technology Infrastructure Library (ITIL). This is achieved through workflow processes that coordinate System Center and other management tools to automate incident response, change and compliance, and service-lifecycle management processes.

Security Tip of the Month: Prioritizing Microsoft Security Update Deployment Using Severity Ratings and the Updated Exploitability Index
Microsoft has established a predictable process for releasing security updates on the second Tuesday of each month. Each security update carries two pieces of information that help with the prioritization process: the severity rating and the Exploitability Index. Explore each of these items in detail and learn how, taken separately, each gives an indication of the risk of a vulnerability being exploited while, taken together, both can add a new dimension of information that can help with prioritization decisions.

Microsoft Security Update Guide, Second Edition
Get in-depth information and tools that can help you protect your IT infrastructure while creating a safer, more secure computing and Internet environment. This guide is designed to help you better understand and maximize Microsoft security update release information, processes, communications, and tools.

How to Remove the Trojan Win32/FakePav
Watch a short demonstration of how Win32/FakePav infects an unprotected computer, and find out how to remove the trojan.

Behind the Curtain of Second Tuesdays: Challenges in Software Security Response
This presentation discloses some of the challenges seen by the MSRC in addressing modern vulnerabilities. As SDL weeded out the simple buffer overflow, vulnerabilities have become more complex in nature and thus more challenging to address. The goal is to provide insight into Microsoft's techniques and processes in responding to these challenges and to provide lessons learned to other organizations in similar situations.

Microsoft Security Compliance Manager
Download this free tool offering centralized security baseline management features, a baseline portfolio, customization capabilities, and security baseline export flexibility to accelerate your organization's ability to efficiently manage the security and compliance process for the most widely used Microsoft technologies.

Security Compliance as an Engineering Discipline
As a result of requirements like the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS), some organizations are building comprehensive application security programs for the first time. Learn how to harmonize compliance-focused programs with security engineering by integrating secure engineering practices into the entire software lifecycle with the Microsoft Security Development Lifecycle (SDL).
