Within the institute, there were some Windows XP Professional workstations Delivery Methods that hosted top-secret data and, at the same time, required access both to the local area network (LAN) as well as to Savings Programs the Internet. Therefore, my challenge was to harden the security on these computers as much as possible. (I know as much as any security professional does that the only true way to ensure the security of a computer is to remove its Training Locations connectivity to any network altogether. However, I also understand that in some cases, this measure is impractical Resource Center and sometimes impossible to implement in practice.) Shopping Cart In this article, I will share some tips for putting a Windows XP Professional-based workstation into "stealth mode." We Search For won't be delving into the intricacies of Internet Protocol Security (IPSec) or hardware firewall traffic policies. Instead, Keyword I'll present a series of tips, tweaks and suggestions that you can apply quickly and easily to improve the security of any Windows XP Professional box on your network.

Tip 1: Disable the Server Service The Server service, which is also known as the "File and Printer Sharing for Microsoft Networks" component in Windows XP, can be very dangerous when enabled on a Windows XP computer that is not actually going to host shared resources on a network.
