With this book, Microsoft MVP Roger Grimes exposes the real threat to Windows computers and offers practical guidance to secure those systems.
Shows how to improve Windows desktop and server security by configuring default security before installing off-the-shelf security products
Educates readers about the most significant security threats, building the ultimate defense, operating system hardening, application security, and automating security
