Security Configuration Wizard
The Security Configuration Wizard (SCW) is a new tool that is available with the installation of Windows Server 2003 Service Pack (SP)1. The SCW reduces the attack surface of Microsoft Windows 2003 Servers by guiding an authorized administrator through a series of questions designed to determine the functional requirements of a server. Any service functionality that is not required, by the roles being performed by the server, is then disabled. This provides greater security for the server by eliminating the potential of those services being used as an avenue of attack.
