Here are some articles I have recently written for Security Pro VIP. Note that these articles are for subscribers only. Security Pro VIP is a new online publication that used to be Penton’s Windows IT Security newsletter.

A new file screening tool in the Windows 2003 R2 File Server Resource Manager toolset lets you block certain files or file types from entering a folder or notify an administrator about the files and take some action.

Windows Firewall Auditing
Regularly auditing the firewall configuration settings for the systems you manage keeps accumulated misconfigurations from compromising your protection. A useful script lets you easily audit your systems’ firewall configurations.
