Inhaltsangabe

Most companies run a domain, which controls the lifeblood of the company’s network, security, and resources. The domain model has changed dramatically from Windows NT 4.0 to Windows 2000 and Server 2003. Focusing on the domain controllers and the domain infrastructure itself, Auditing Security and Controls of Windows® Active Directory® Domains, will expose all of the nooks and crannies that need to be audited. This handbook is ideal for those who have never audited a Windows Active Directory domain to those who have done so numerous times. This book will:

- Expand your knowledge and push the limits of what your audit program includes. - Solve issues regarding security control points, scope of domain controllers, scope of domains, and target goals. - Teach you the terminology enabling you to able to "talk the talk" with the IT and security administrators, help in the evaluation and analysis of the audit data, and make your audit more efficient. - Pinpoint where each control point resides for a server. - Discuss how to structure the audit with regard to the aspects of the domain. - Lay out a detailed audit plan that will allow you to take the knowledge you learned and put it into action.
