Microsoft has just scored a significant partnership for the future of Windows 10, as the United States Department of Defender has agreed to install the new operating system on 4 million devices used by its agencies.
Redmond says that a wide variety of devices, “from laptops to desktops to mobile devices,” will be upgraded to Windows 10, with Surface tablets to also be deployed across the organization.
The target for the Windows 10 deployment is one year, so by this time in 2017, the United States Department of Defense is supposed to complete the transition to the new OS.
Obviously, Microsoft has taken this opportunity to praise Windows 10’s security features, citing Windows Defender and Windows Hello as two of the pioneers that make the new operating system such a good choice for governments around the world. Including the one of the United States, that is.
