Dana Epp's ramblings at the Sanctuary: Step-by-Step Guide to Securing Windows XP Professional in Small and Medium Businesses


« Red vs. Blue \| Main \| Defeating the stack protection mechanism in Windows 2003 Server » September 11, 2003 Step-by-Step Guide to Securing Windows XP Professional in Small and Medium Businesses With the plethora of information about the latest HUGE RPC exploit (with which we could possibly see BlasterII in the next few days) I've decided to not blog about the obvious, like UPDATE AND PATCH YOUR SYSTEMS. I won't tell you to do things you already know, because you always UPDATE AND PATCH YOUR SYSTEMS. Subliminal messages aside, instead of telling you what to do, (and where to go when you don't listen to me) I will point you to an interesting step-by-step guide to securing Windows XP for Small and Medium Businesses that Microsoft released yesterday. Happy reading.
