Albemarle County Enhances Security With Microsoft Solution Accelerators

The county's IT Department is creating an "Access Albemarle" Web site portal using Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007, which will, among other services, provide access to information managed in a new deployment of the Microsoft Dynamics GP business management software. As the county rolls out the new solution, it needs guidance on creating, implementing, and managing policies to safeguard data security and proactively address other issues. The county found the guidance it needed with Microsoft Solution Accelerators, including the Microsoft IT Compliance Management Guide, the Security Compliance Management Toolkit series, and Microsoft Operations Framework 4.0. Solution Accelerators are created by Microsoft and offered as free downloads to help organizations deploy and manage IT infrastructure.
