Strictly guard against Windows Server 2008 security threats

With Windows Server 2008, we can easily build our own servers on the LAN to allow random access to regular workstations with other systems installed. Although the security performance of Windows Server 2008 system is much higher than that of other systems, in the LAN environment, Windows Server 2008 still has the possibility of being illegally accessed by other LAN workstations. To this end, we can take some measures in time to cleverly hide the Windows Server 2008 system to avoid the leakage of private information in the server system.

In the same working subnet, other workstation users can easily find the Windows Server 2008 server host on the LAN through the "Network Neighborhood" function, so that illegal users can Can take the opportunity to peek at the various private information in the server. In order to prevent the Windows Server 2008 server host from being searched by the "My Network Places" function of other workstations, we can temporarily disable the network discovery function that comes with the server system. In this case, the "image" of the Windows Server 2008 server host will not appear. The "Network Neighborhood" window of other workstations, so the possibility of server host encountering illegal access is greatly reduced; now, we will work together to close the network discovery function of the server system:

First log in to the Windows Server 2008 server system with super administrator privileges, right-click the "Network" icon in the desktop of the system, and execute the "Properties" command in the shortcut menu to enter the network and sharing center window of the local server system. Here we will see a lot of parameter settings related to shared access;

In order to prevent our Windows Server 2008 server host from appearing in the "My Network Places" window of other workstations, we can share and Find "Network Discovery" under the "Discovery" list Set the item and use the mouse to click the drop-down button next to the setting item to open the setting page shown in Figure 1. Here, we will see that the server system will automatically turn off the network discovery function by default, if we find this function When it has been enabled, you only need to re-check the "Close Network Discovery" option, click the "Apply" button, and finally restart the server system, so that other workstations on the LAN cannot be found in the My Network Neighborhood window. The Windows Server 2008 server is hosted, so that server system security can be effectively guaranteed.
