Microsoft recently said that it would set up two labs to study on the rise nasty software hovering around in the cyber world. The Redmond giant said that the Malware Protection Centers, in Dublin and Tokyo, would be employed with analysts who would be assigned to generate updates, known as "signatures" for its security softwares to identify pernicious software. As per the sources, it is said that the labs are to be like ones operated by rivals like Symantec & McAfee, but executives were reported to be saying forcibly that they were not making attempts to openly vie facility-for-facility with rivals, but in fact attempting to cater the requirements from their customers. Microsoft is also said to have operated only one lab at its head office in Redmond, Wash., which can be availed, if required, on a 24-hour basis. As a result the company is now going to get facilities in three times zones. The labs are aimed at giving support to Microsoft’s range of consumer and enterprise security softwares.
