First, I do not think there is any silver bullet to solving the technology side of the security equation.

One of the things that has been truly incredible to observe though, is the amount of venture investment that has gone into early stage security technology.

So ensuring the integrity of the data and integrity and validity of the connection is a very important element in any company's strategy that is moving towards a Web service paradigm.

I don't think there is any franchise more powerful than ours around securing the consumer experience and we will not concede that to anyone including Microsoft.

If you accept that security is a process, and if you can eliminate the human interaction or intervention in that process by automating more, that is a good thing.

Well we have a good working relationship with Microsoft at the development level. But let's not kid ourselves, this is a company with enormous resources and talented people, and there is a certain pride that comes along with that for them and for us.

There has been no appreciable improvement in our country's ability to produce the kind of talent we need in this space. There have been some small initiatives around the country that have been noteworthy.
