OREANDA-NEWS. November 15, 2011. Doctor Web, the Russian IT-security solutions vendor, has been granted the highest Microsoft partner status, having fulfilled all the necessary conditions in the Independent Software Vendor Competency. The status attests to Doctor Web anti-virus products’ full compatibility with the Windows 7 platform and reaffirms the high level of the qualifications of Doctor Web experts.

The new Microsoft Partner Program imposes the most stringent requirements on partners having the Gold Certified Partner status, both in terms of technological compliance, and in how well a vendor's customers are satisfied with its products.
