Hi All -

Microsoft is pleased to announce that version 1.0 of the Windows 2000
Internet Server Security Configuration Tool is available for download
and use.  The tool makes it easy to secure a web server running IIS
5.0.  It conducts an interview to determine what services you want to
provide and the general way that you'd like for the server to operate,
then generates and deploys a policy to configure the server
appropriately.

The tool is available for download at
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/tools.asp.  Before using the
tool, please be sure to read the Readme file included with it. The
tool errs on the side of caution, and locks down many aspects of the
system. It's important that you understand the effects this can have
before deciding whether to lock down your server.

We will be developing an advanced version of the tool, and also are
deploying more security checklists.  All of these can be downloaded
from http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/tools.asp.  Regards,

Secure () microsoft com
