Microsoft Ninjitsu: Securely Deploying MS Technologies

Timothy Mullen

What to bring:
Students should bring their own wireless (802.11b) network-ready laptops (with CD) preferably running Windows® XP- and an open mind. A CD will be provided with reference material, sample code, and utilities.

Where possible, students should pre-install VMWare images of Win2k3 Server and associated software applications should they wish to participate in and experiment with "live" configuration changes.

This course covers a substantial amount of material for many different Microsoft applications and technologies in relatively short period of time. Students should expect a wide range of topics and a quick pace.

Redesigned and updated. This class has been re-designed to contain all-new Windows content.

The key to securing a Microsoft® infrastructure is to build security into the foundation. When properly configured, the Microsoft suite of technologies can be deployed to provide highly available, reliable, and secure network services.

This intensive two-day course will take you on a journey through the full deployment cycle of the most common Microsoft products, stopping along the way to sniff the packets and secure the route less traveled. If you make it to the end of Day Two in one piece, you will be prepared to snatch the pebble from the Master's palm.
