Storage vendors are starting to sign on with Microsoft to implement the RADIUS protocol as a way to increase the security of data storage, Microsoft officials said Monday at the StorageNetworking World conference, held here this week.
Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS) is a protocol which was previously adopted as a standard by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF), said Zane Adam, director of product management and marketing for Microsoft's Enterprise Storage Division.
