3 Steps to Hardening Your
Windows Servers
Your Windows servers are the gatekeepers to your IT ecosystem, including your most sensitive systems
and regulated data. Here’s how you can strengthen Windows Server security in just 3 steps.
1 Ensure and Maintain Safe Configurations
Make your Windows servers as impermeable to attack as possible by easily configuring them in
accordance with security best practices using CIS and DISA STIG certified build templates.
Maintain system integrity by promptly detecting and reverting any configuration drift.
2 Spot Attacks Promptly and Track Compliance Status
Reduce the risk of data theft, downtime and compliance violations by immediately detecting improper
changes to critical files and monitoring your security status. For example, you can easily view:
- Planned and unplanned changes to your devices
- Trends in your compliance report results
- A summary of currently planned changes
- Potential problems with individual devices
3 Identify and Respond to True Threats Faster
Avoid alert fatigue by coordinating with your ITSM solution to filter out planned configuration
management activities. Focus on truly suspicious changes that put your IT systems
— and therefore your business — at risk.
