Keep your IIS 7.0 Secure - the Windows 2008 Security Guide (beta)
so we meet again...
Connect and get the beta version of the Windows Server 2008 Security Guide. What is it?
Based on extensive, real-world experience from customers, government agencies, and Microsoft security experts, the Windows Server 2008 Security Guide describes how to structure your environment correctly and prescribes security settings that are appropriate for most enterprise environments. The guide also prescribes more restrictive settings that are appropriate for more "locked down" environments, where concern for security is so great that a significant loss of functionality is acceptable.
Both security setting configurations have been thoroughly tested in Microsoft labs, and validated by customers and partners under real-world conditions. You also can easily tailor the configuration you choose by modifying any of the security settings to accommodate the unique needs of your organization.
If you think IIS 7.0 is cool (yes!), you'll enjoy the whole chapter (Chapter 6) dedicated to hardening web services that includes:
- explaining the web server role
- secure by default features
- reducing the attack surface
- a configuration checklist
Hey 1337 H4XR, want security and IIS 7.0 at the movies?
