If you’re responsible for protecting Windows systems, firewalls and anti-virus aren’t enough. You also need to master incident response, recovery, and auditing. Leading Windows security expert and instructor Harlan Carvey offers a start-to-finish guide to the subject: everything administrators must know to recognize and respond to virtually any attack. Drawing on his widely acclaimed course, Carvey uses real-world examples to cover every significant incident response, recovery, and forensics technique. He delivers a complete incident response toolset that combines today’s best open source and freeware tools, his own exclusive software and scripts, and step-by-step instructions for using them. This book’s tools and techniques apply to every current and professional version of Windows: NT, 2000, XP, and Windows Server 2003.
