Microsoft has also revamped and updated the components, which let you protect intellectual property both inside and outside your firewall. The first portion of this book has shown you how to build images and implement deployment strategies that can re-image a computer in less than half an hour.

Whether it be by making sure your users can recover their own information on Vista or because you need to recover a computer from a total loss, rely on this section to discover the ins and outs of Vista's backup and recovery capabilities.
