I would suggest checking out http://www.cisecurity.com/ for these types
of standards.  You can either adopt a standards doc whole-hog, or
pick-and-choose what you think is appropriate for your purposes.

Cheers,
Brian

We are defining some new servers that we wish to classify as Secure

not have a step based procedure or checklist. Is anyone willing to share
their procedure for developing a Secure Server?

Thank you,
