About the Book

System administrators and network managers desperately need expert guidance on setting up and maintaining secure NT environments. In this book, a leading consultant to top global companies presents hands-on, task-oriented coverage you need and insight into the key underlying concepts critical to maximizing NT security. You'll find detailed coverage for NT 4 enterprise networks, plus five chapters previewing the major security enhancements in Windows 2000, and practical guidance for migration. Windows NT Security introduces both Windows NT 4's and Windows 2000's security models, and provides exceptional insight into the file and directory security mechanisms that are at the heart of NT security. Learn how to secure Internet and intranet connections provided via IIS, as well as RRAS remote access connections. Establish a rock-solid security foundation from scratch, discover best practices for auditing NT security, and learn techniques for enhancing flawed security. Identify the best ways to implement encryption and authentication, including a preview of Windows 2000 Kerberos authentication, and master complex tools such as the Microsoft Certificate Server.
