Abstract

If you're building business-critical Web solutions with Microsoft technology, your #1 concern must be security. This is the only complete guide to securing today's state-of-the-art Web sites using all the tools and technologies Microsoft provides. Review the fundamentals of Web, network and computing security: how to create sound policies, choose appropriate security technologies, implement appropriate monitoring, and stay up-to-date with both immediate security holes and long-term trends. Leverage NT and Internet Information Server security systems, firewalls, proxy servers, secure channels and VPN security. Master application level security, using Active Server Pages (ASP), Microsoft Transaction Server (MTS), and the Active Directory Service Interface (ADSI). Walk through creating your own public key infrastructure with Microsoft's Certificate Server; integrating ASP with MTS components; protecting Web databases; using ADSI to secure LDAP directories; working with Microsoft's Site Server membership components; and using Active User Objects to identify Web users and personalize sites more effectively. Along the way, you'll find extensive examples -- and new insight into Microsoft security features, documented and undocumented.
