You can look at Microsoft's document in their Patterns & Practices series, titled "Building Secure ASP.NET Applications -Authentication, Authorization, and Secure Communication". It's available at http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?displaylang=en&FamilyID= 055FF772-97FE-41B8-A58C-BF9C6593F25E
There's a three part series on Component Security Design Considerations available at http://www.arctecgroup.net/articles.htm Part 1 J2EE Security Part 2 .Net Security Part 3 Comparing J2EE and .Net Security Looks fairly high-level, compared to the Microsoft documentation, so you may want to give these three docs to your development teams as a start. Sanctum have released "Secure Coding Practices for Microsoft .NET Applications", available at http://www.sanctuminc.com/pdf/whitepaper_secure_coding_practices_vsdotne t.pdf. It's basically a brief checklist of things to avoid. You can also look at the OWASP.net site, currently at http://domain444037.sites.fasthosts.com/OWASP/aspx/. There is a Security Guides link off the main page. I don't claim to have read all these docs in great detail, so YMMV.

Hi All, my boss has asked me to see if there are any guidelines out there regarding dot Net... We currently use Java, but we expect the development teams to want to use microsoft's lastest toy sooner or later..
