7. Enhancing User Productivity

8. IPv6 All services within Windows Vista are IPv6-enabled Seamless cost-optimized transitional approach Receive-side auto-tuning Automatically senses the network environment and adjusts important performance settings Allows increase in the size of the TCP/IP send/receive window SMB 2.0 protocol improvements Number of open files and shares on the server Packet compounding reduces “chattiness” Message signing settings have been improved Client-side encryption is supported Durable handles are supported

9. Situation Today DirectAccess Office Home Challenging for IT to manage, update, and patch mobile PCs while disconnected from the company network Difficult for users to access corporate resources from outside the office Corporate network boundary includes managed assets no matter where they are on the Internet Easy to service mobile PCs and distribute updates and polices New network paradigm increases mobile user productivity by providing the same experience inside and outside the office HomeOffice

10. ClientServer Runs on Windows 7 Domain-joined Initial configuration done on the corporate network or over VPN Runs on Windows Server 2008 R2 Sits on the network edge Single box by default Services can be split up for scalability

11. IT Pro Benefits Improved manageability of remote users IT simplification and cost reduction Consistent security for all access scenarios End-User Benefits Seamless and secure access to corporate resources Consistent connectivity experience inside and outside the office Enhances the end-to-end IW experience when combined with other Windows 7 features

12. IPv6 Devices IPv4 Devices DirectAccess Server Windows 7 Client Native IPv6 with IPSec IPv6 Transition Services Supports variety of remote network protocols DirectAccess provides transparent, secured access to intranet resources without a VPN Allows desktop management of DirectAccess clients Allows IPSec encryption and authentication Supports direct connectivity to IPv6- based intranet resources Support IPv4 via 6to4 transition services or NAT-PT IT desktop management AD Group Policy, NAP, software updates Internet

13. Situation Today BranchCache™ Application and data access over WAN is slow in branch offices Slow connections hurt user productivity Improving network performance is expensive and difficult to implement Caches content downloaded from file and Web servers Users in the branch can quickly open files stored in the cache Frees up network bandwidth for other uses

14. IT Pro Benefits Helps reduce WAN utilization and cost Data encryption is enforced across the network Simple to deploy End User Benefits Less waiting for downloads = more productivity Combined with other Windows 7 features enhances the end to end IW experience

18. Protect Sensitive Data

19. Today’s Challenges Unprotected network taps within an organization’s buildings Administrators have limited control over the health of systems joining the network Result: hardware/network upgrades and increased operational costs, reduced productivity Solution: end-to-end, authenticated, tamper-resistant communication Improved isolation using IPsec Network access protection across IPsec, 802.1X, DHCP, VPN Increased manageability

20. 1 1 Remediation Servers Example: Patch Restricted Network 1 Windows Client 2 2 2 DHCP, VPN, or switch/router relays health status to Microsoft Network Policy Server (RADIUS) 3 3 3 Network Policy Server (NPS) validates against IT-defined health policy 4 4 If not policy compliant, client is put in a restricted VLAN and given access to fix up resources to download patches, configurations, and signatures (Repeat 1-4) Not policy compliant 5 If policy compliant, client is granted full access to corporate network Policy compliant NPS DHCP, VPN switch/router 4 Policy Servers Example: Patch, AV Corporate Network 5 Client requests access to network and presents current health state

21. Untrusted Unmanaged/rogue computer Domain Isolation Active Directory Domain Controller X Server Isolation Servers with Sensitive Data HR Workstation Managed Computer X Trusted Resource Server Corporate Network Define the logical isolation boundaries Distribute policies and credentials Managed computers can communicate Block inbound connections from untrusted Enable tiered-access to sensitive resources

22. Reduce the risk of network security threats An additional layer of defense-in-depth Reduced attack surface area Increased manageability and more healthy clients Safeguard sensitive data and intellectual property Authenticated, end-to-end network communications Scalable, tiered access to trusted networked resources Protect the confidentiality and integrity of data Extend the value of existing investments No additional hardware or software required Get more value from Active Directory and group policy Complements existing third-party network security solutions

23. Enhanced Manageability

24. DirectAccess Enables “always-on” management of remote machines to support a fully manageable environment Scenarios include: Group policy updates Folder redirection/client-side caching Software/update distribution Event Subscriptions Proactive management of key issues Pull/forward events to and from multiple machines and search/collate Does not require loading entire log from remote machine
