Your computers are at risk, whether they are connected to a corporate intranet or the Internet, have access to a sensitive database, or simply sit on your desk when you're not there. In the Windows NT Security Guide, Steve Sutton, a security expert and corporate trainer, shows you how to maximize Windows NT's various security protections and avoid many of its pitfalls. This book explains NT's security features from a step-by-step, how-to perspective with numerous realistic examples. Whether you are a day-to-day user or network administrator, you'll find Windows NT Security Guide an invaluable reference.

Windows NT Security Guide helps you:

  • Spot and protect against common threats, such as data snooping and tampering, password misuse, and viruses
  • Configure Windows NT against Internet and intranet security risks
