Windows Server 2003: Designing Network Security

Learning Outcomes:

• Correctly describe the basics of designing security and create a plan for securing the network and identify possible threats to a network and common motivations of attackers utilizing the information provided in the Lesson Lab.

• Accurately determine what resources in the organization require protection and prioritize those resources based on value, develop a risk management plan to identify and analyze risks proactively and determine appropriate level of protection for each resource utilizing the instructions in the Lesson Lab.

• Given a set of criteria, successfully design an audit policy to limit damage caused by an attack and an incident response procedure during a security incident.

During this 3 day course you will design security solutions for Microsoft networks by assembling a design tree, modeling threats, and analyzing security risks.
