Case Scenario Exercise

 < Day Day Up > 



Your chief security officer is concerned about recent news reports of a virus. After a computer on an internal network is infected, the virus spreads by scanning all the IP addresses on the subnet for open shares. It then attempts to propagate itself into those shares using the Anonymous Logon credentials. You want to reduce your exposure to this virus, as the requirements below outline.

Even though anonymous users are not members of the Everyone group in Windows Server 2003, you have some applications that require anonymous access to shares on a computer named Computer3. To allow them to access the shares, you have enabled the Network Access: Let Everyone Permissions Apply To Anonymous Users option, as shown in Figure 1.15.

    1. Evaluate which shares require anonymous access, and configure those shares as hidden by appending a $ to the share name.

    2. Disable the Network Access: Let Everyone Permissions Apply To Anonymous Users setting.

    3. Enable the Network Access: Shares That Can Be Accessed Anonymously setting for those shares required by the legacy application.

    4. Enable the Network Access: Let Everyone Permissions Apply To Anonymous Users setting for all computers in the domain.

  2. The presence of one of the following security principals in the ACL of a shared folder indicates that anonymous users have access to the shared folder. Which security principal would indicate this?

    1. Everyone

    2. Anonymous

    3. Anonymous Logon
