This applies security rules to the Windows Server 2008 R2 operating system on the ASM hosting the SBA, and improves system hardening (i.e., reducing its surface of vulnerability).

You can do so by either Applying an SBA Security Template#Applying a Security Template, or Applying an SBA Security Template#Importing Importing a Custom Security Template of choice. The following is a list of the main groups of security rules that are modified:

• Microsoft OS Services
• Microsoft OS Networking Firewall
• Microsoft OS Registry Values
• Microsoft OS Audit
• Microsoft OS SCE Templates
