Windows Server 2008 Security Infrastructure |
|
You Will Learn How To
- Apply Windows Server 2008 features to secure your infrastructure
- Deploy a Windows-based Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) as a foundation
for security services
- Enhance access controls with policy-based multifactor authentication
- Build a scalable encryption solution that assures recovery of protected
data
- Install and configure Network Access Protection (NAP) to exclude
unhealthy computers
- Implement Domain Isolation to decrease network risk for sensitive
servers
Course Benefits
Securing the network infrastructure has become a top priority and a major technical
challenge for most organizations. Windows Server 2008 provides powerful and complex
technologies for decreasing network risk and improving policy compliance. This course
provides you with the knowledge and skills necessary to correctly implement these
solutions.
Who Should Attend
IT professionals responsible for securing a Windows-based network infrastructure.
Knowledge at the level of , "Windows Server 2008
Comprehensive Introduction," or practical experience configuring and managing
Windows Server 2003, is assumed.
Hands-On Training
Extensive hands-on exercises provide practical experience designing and implementing
a secure network infrastructure. Exercises include:
- Deploying Certificate Servers to provide key escrow and Key Recovery
Agents
