Session Type: Morning Seminar
Windows Desktops are widely deployed and can be subject to multiple attack vectors. Windows 2000, XP, Vista, have vulnerabilities that should be mitigated effectively by network security teams or by end users. This session will cover the top security vulnerabilities in Windows desktops and how to secure them quickly and effectively.
This seminar will include slides from the EDUCAUSE effective practices security task force, material from the SANS Web site and others, demonstrations of various tools, and handouts. Participants will learn how to bypass typical mistakes, develop incident-handling protocols and procedures, and leave with a handy checklist that they can use to secure their desktop computers and network environments. These effective practices are real examples from peer institutions. We are only as secure as our weakest link, and sharing lessons learned can make us all stronger.
