Securing Windows XP Guide -----

Posted on Nov 15 2004 01:46 PM by xper  in Guides | Viewed 210 Times

This guide will show you how to secure Windows XP. While it covers the basics it also goes beyond them without going into "paranoid" mode. Protecting yourself from all the “bad guys� on the Internet requires a multi-tiered approach. There is no single product, either hardware or software based that will adequately protect you from the perils of being connected to the Internet. Only you can protect yourself and that will require some effort to understand the nature of the threats, the potential ways to protect yourself, and how these protective measures can be integrated together.



This guide is for home users in a stand-alone or workgroup environment. It is intended as a step-by-step guide and we highly suggest you read through the entire article before taking any action. We welcome suggestions and feedback.

Why not just use the DOD checklists to lock it down. They are a bit easier to read.
