Meet the challenges of Windows security with the exclusive Hacking Exposed

"attack-countermeasure" approach. Learn how real-world malicious hackers conduct

reconnaissance of targets and then exploit common misconfigurations and software

flaws on both clients and servers. See leading-edge exploitation techniques

demonstrated, and learn how the latest countermeasures in Windows XP, Vista, and

Server 2003/2008 can mitigate these attacks. Get practical advice based on the

authors' and contributors' many years as security professionals hired to break

into the world's largest IT infrastructures. Dramatically improve the security

of Microsoft technology deployments of all sizes when you learn to:



    * Establish business relevance and context for security by highlighting

      real-world risks

    * Take a tour of the Windows security architecture from the hacker's

      perspective, exposing old and new vulnerabilities that can easily be

      scanning, banner grabbing, DNS queries, and Google searches to locate

      vulnerable Windows systems

    * Learn how information is extracted anonymously from Windows using simple

      NetBIOS, SMB, MSRPC, SNMP, and ActiveDirectory enumeration techniques

    * Prevent the latest remote network exploits such as password grinding

      via WMI and Terminal Server, passive Kerberos logon sniffing, rogue

      server/man-in-the-middle attacks, and cracking vulnerable services

    * See up close how professional hackers reverse engineer and develop new

      Windows exploits

    * Identify and eliminate rootkits, malware, and stealth software

    * Fortify SQL Server against external and insider attacks

    * Harden your clients and users against the latest e-mail phishing, spyware,
