Please log in for more thread options Hello,
i wouldn't go so straight...
Web servers can be protected by isa reverse proxy, so there won't be any
direct tcp connection.
They may be more protected through:
-renamed admin account with strong password
-netbios disabled if possible
-no direct connection to outside
-pass the MBSA test at least
-Remove default website
-hisec gpo template
-disable unused service (remote registry...)
-never surf from these servers

Cordialement,
Mathieu CHATEAU
