From: "Rich Gauszka" 

I wonder if the 'do not trust the user' wga team will get to infect the
Microsoft  'Trustworthy Computing Team'?

It looks like security functions are spread across the Core and Trustworthy
teams. I wonder which one will have the final say on security?

The Windows Core System Team: This team will be led by Ben Fathi
(Development), Darren Muir (Test) and Chuck Chan (Program Management). It
will be responsible for the Windows Core System, including important
innovations in the areas of kernel, virtualization, security, networking
and deployment, as well as driving discipline excellence and growing
engineering talent across COSD.

The Trustworthy Computing Team: This team will be led by Scott Charney. It
will expand its charter from its Trustworthy Computing (TWC) roots to
include Security Engineering efforts, Security Response infrastructure,
security outreach and Engineering Excellence investments. These functions,
combined with core TWC team and Network Security will create an integrated
team focused on delivering against Microsoft's ongoing commitment to
Trustworthy Computing
