Windows NT Network Security

Apr 16, 1999

Abstract

The Windows NT network environment is anything but simple. Is the Windows NT network environment a "normal" network environment that can be secured in a manner similar to other network environments, or does running Windows NT machines within a network create special security problems? What services and protocols comprise the mainstream of the Windows NT network environment, and what vulnerabilities are result? What solutions are available and which are most effective? This talk, the fourth and final in the series on Windows NT security, addresses these questions.
