From: hct on 31 Jul 2010 14:36 Hi all , I am reviewing some of the setting for securing our netowrk computers and also servers,... Is there a best practice source I can review to make sure I am doing the latest desktop lockdowns etc.. I have tried to do some searching and can't find any step by step best practices..... I am seeing some things that were maybe missed such as the local machine administrator password is blank....There is a user on the local machine that has a blank password..etc... Thanks again for your inight as always.... Bob
