Site Security Planning |
To protect your site and the users who provide content for it, prevent users from downloading unsafe files over the Internet. Set and enforce browser and e-mail security for at least those users who provide content to your site. Establish a policy for maintaining a list of restricted sites, and set browser restrictions accordingly. Use a centralized browser management package to lock in browser security settings (see the sidebar, “Locking in Security Settings for Microsoft Internet Explorer and Outlook” for an example of how to do this).
