IIS 6.0 comes as standard on Server 2003 and is secure enough. I have switched to Apache though, coz there were a few things that couldn't work right (or i couldnt get to work at least) on IIS.

I think that you mount an Apache Web Server on a Windows 2000 or 2003 (I don´t know if Apache work on W2003) and you secure the Operative Sistem, you are fine or more secure that usind IIS. I don´t test IIS 6.0 over 2003 Sorry for my English Tomas A Germano Analista de Seguridad Metrovias. Argentina -----Mensaje original----- De: Mark Spencer [mailto:mspencer () evidentdata com] Enviado el: Miércoles 24 de Noviembre de 2004 11:49 Para: security-basics () securityfocus com Asunto: "Secure" Web Hosting? Hello all, I'm looking for suggestions on web hosting providers that pay particular attention to security issues, e.g. hardening networks, servers, and applications. On a somewhat related note, if I wanted to host a web server myself, what is the recommended platform for getting a web server online in a secure and intuitive fashion? I know that OpenBSD has an excellent reputation, but may be difficult to setup for someone that hasn't spent much time with BSD. What about EnGarde Linux? Thanks!
