C2 Security Evaluation vs. Certification Setting up a C2-compliant System Abstract Microsoft® Windows NT® operating system provides a rich set of security features. However, the default out-of-the-box configuration is highly relaxed, especially on the Workstation product. This is because the operating system is sold as a shrink-wrapped product with an assumption that an average customer may not want to worry about a highly restrained but secure system on their desktop. This assumption has changed over the years as Windows NT gains popularity largely because of its security features. Microsoft is investigating a better secured default configuration for future releases. In the meantime, this white paper talks about various security issues with respect to configuring all Windows NT version 4.0 OS products for a highly secure computing environment.

    Challenges to Building Scalable Services A Survey of Microsoft’s Internet Services MSR-TR-2015-29 Comments from the Authors: This paper was originally circulated as a Microsoft Confidential memo in fall 1999. Its purpose was to document the findings of the co-authors as we attempted to understand the state-of-the-art of large internet services. Our original intent was to gather the data documented in this paper purely for our own to understand. However, as we discussed early findings with our colleagues, we quickly realized the value of circulating them to a wider audience. The original memo was circulated to Microsoft’s entire executive staff and quickly passed around. From file server data, we believe over 1,000 MS employees read the original memo in the first three months after internal publication. This release of the memo has been modified slightly from the original to remove non- technical information, such as business plans. Due to an unfortunate oversight on my part, the original memo did not name each of the people we interviewed. Those pioneers deserved recognition at the time and their groundbreaking work deserves now to be remembered by history. In the 15 years since this paper’s circulation, much has changed at Microsoft and in the industry. Experience gathered in writing this paper directly lead to our discovery of the core principles of what is now widely known as cloud computing. In 1999, Microsoft’s largest internet service had just over 2,000 computers. Today, many cloud services use over 100,000 servers. Many of the services and technologies described in this paper no longer exist.
