SAN FRANCISCO - The rivalry between two giant technology industry heated up again after 'attack' Google has accused Microsoft of misleading users related to software security certification program for their own government.
Through his personal blog, Microsoft Deputy General Counsel David Howard wrote about the existence of court documents related to 'Google Apps for Government' which was yet to receive certification from the Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA), while Google claims to have obtained the certificate.
Documents on the application that is part of Google's lawsuit, which claims that the company had unfairly suspended from tendering for new email system for the manufacture of 85 thousand employees of the Department of the Interior. Tender itself eventually won by Microsoft.
"It's time for Google to stop saying something that is not true to the government," wrote Howard, as quoted by Yahoo News, on Tuesday (12/04/2011).
Google insists that it is not misleading anyone, because another version of the product had indeed been certified by the FISMA.
Mountain View-based company asserts that the 'Google Apps' has received certification from the FISMA in July 2010, and that the 'Google Apps for Government' is the same system with the security controls required by FISMA.
Google and Microsoft are often attacked each other. Last February, Google was also accused Microsoft has to imitate Google's search results.
