Testing my Network Security
A couple of friend's and I are starting a small freelance web development company. As some of you may know, I have been doing web design for quite a few years. I have taken a few Windows 2000 Server administration classes, and I am in charge of setting up our network. Our network has been up for a few months now, and everything has been running pretty smooth. Lately we have been doing work for a few clients which we now host their sites, and I want to make sure that our network's security is good. I have done most of the basics such as making sure that only services that are being used are running, and I always install the latest service packs and critical updates. However, I am no security guru.
So I was wondering if anyone would be interested in messing around and seeing if they can find any holes in our network. I don't want any damage done obviosuly, just want to see if anyone can catch anything I missed. I want to run this business as securely as possible. The network is small and only has two computers on it. Both are running Windows 2000 Server. I can assure you that this is my network. I have full authority to give permission to mess around. I will even gladly talk to you over the phone about it and confirm that this is my property.
If you are bored or want to help me out by taking a look I'd really appreciate it. Like I said, I think I have it pretty secure, but I'm not a security guru. This could be a learning experience for me. If you are interested PM me. Also if you are paranoid about checking out the network, any suggestions about how to test my security would also be welcome. Scanner recommendations, or any mentioned common Windows 2000 Server flaws would be appreciated. Thanks.
Note: I hope this isn't breaking any AO rules. I have been a member for a while and have a good reputation. This is just an honest request to see if anyone would help me catch anything I missed.
