Getting Started with Windows Server Security

Summary

The focus of this chapter was to provide a method to implement a baseline server security policy based on your business requirement. I believe we have achieved this by using Microsoft Security Configuration Wizard (SCW). Once you have established a server platform security, you have to implement other aspects of security like application restriction, security to minimize server exploitation, and so on. Also, it is critical to have a management and administration method to maintain and monitor these polices. In the coming chapters, I will be explaining a few tools to accomplish these tasks.
