I work for a fairly large business here at home, and I've been asked to draft a proposal for new security policies at work. Due (unsurprisingly) to the budget constraints of our corporate structure, we operate in a very, well...obsolete environment. The network is built around a Novell 4.11 server, has two NT servers running (one with ADP for payroll, the other with MS SQL 7, neither configured in any type of domain structure), and mostly Windows 95a clients, though we do have a number of Windows 98SE and Windows 2000 machines.
What I need to do is basically threefold: (1) Design a way to manage interoperability at the login level (ie, login scripts and group policies) (2) Manage system policies to prevent users from destroying their systems (3) Use available and/or freely available tools. Though I'm doing my own research, I wanted to toss this one out to all of you for ideas. And yes, before you guys ask, the suggestions "update everything to 2000", or, more optimally "ditch MS and switch to Linux or Unix" have been shot down. I know somebody did a Capstone this past semester on securing Windows 95, and I regretted even at the time not being able to attend. If the presenter or someone else could provide me with any sort of handouts or slideshows from the presentation, that would certainly make my job easier. Any other insight or assistance is welcome.
