Microsoft defended the security of Windows OS

The software company Microsoft Corporation shifted into an offensive mode against the web giant Google’s statements that were made just a few days ago. It was reported that the search engine company is already furnishing its plan to abandon the Windows operating system because of faulty security performance, which the product has been demonstrating during the previous months.

Windows proves to be getting stronger

According to a blog post written by Brandon LeBlanc, the Windows communication manager of Microsoft, the reports presented by Google wherein Windows operating system’s security is failing is very much ironic.

LeBlanc was able to gather different accounts, which can help tell the people that all the allegations stated against the security of their OS were actually false. There was a proof that came from the “Mashable” stating that the Yale University had already trimmed down its standard utilization of the Gmail. To establish the fact Microsoft has been incessantly stressing at, he added the report wherein Mac OS has been the target of the online crooks while making good use of their advanced malicious software.

No tough grounds were provided

LeBlanc also went against the words indicated on The Financial Times’ article about few days ago. As written on the article, the Windows operating systems is recognized as something that is very much predisposed to malicious attacks. Furthermore, the OS has the least performing security that it is frequently assaulted by viruses if compared to other brands. The communication manager contradicted The Financial Times’ write up and said that their details did not provide enough backing for the allegation.

Trust remains on Microsoft’s merchandise

As guaranteed by LeBlanc, many corporations are keeping their confidence on Microsoft’s service even though Google has its own plans of abandoning their company. Additionally, the manager also wrote that the attackers also see how Microsoft has been doing a pretty good job in tightening up the security on each of their products.

Other third-party agencies and business managers including Cisco consistently inform Microsoft that they are providing greater effort on their ventures and focus when compared with the other leading companies.
