The business client security product Microsoft has been working on since 2003 will finally make its debut in May, Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer said Monday.

Speaking at a technology event near Amsterdam, Ballmer said that Forefront Client Security, Microsoft's antivirus and antispyware product for business desktops, will be available "in the next month." The product has been in beta testing for more than a year, and the company's most recent target for final release is by the end of June.

Ballmer characterized the product, which is a combination of products acquired from other companies and Microsoft in-house development, as an all-in-one security product for PCs in a business environment. "It really does do hygiene, security, antivirus all the way down to the client level," he said.
