Microsoft is working to expand its security response and research operations beyond their current base in Redmond, Washington.

Over the next six months, the software giant plans to establish teams in Europe and Asia for round-the-clock coverage of security incidents and to support customers of its security products, Vincent Gullotto, general manager of security research and response at Microsoft, said in an interview at the RSA Conference.

Gullotto said: “Clearly, we have to build a global organisation. We will develop sites to cover the Americas, EMEA and Asia, for us to be protecting customers and providing support globally for all the people that use the various security products that we develop.”
