About the White Paper:
One of the most prevalent ways for nefarious software or Internet users to creep onto your network is through your mobile users, when they try to connect to your business network while on the road. Most remote users are only authenticated on the basis of their identity. For this reason, Windows Server 2003 includes a new feature in its Resource Kit, called Network Access Quarantine Control (NAQC), which allows you to prevent remote users from connecting to your network with machines that aren't up to date and secure. This chapter will detail how this feature works and how to install and configure it.
Learn all about it in Chapter 7, 'Network Access Quarantine Control,' from Jonathan Hassell's book "Hardening Windows" with this series of book excerpts, courtesy of Apress.
