IIS 7.5, prevent XSS
I'm running Server 2008 R2 SP1 with IIS 7.5. Our users remote in to the system using both Web Access and RemoteApps and as part of a security review we had a full penetration test run against our external servers. For the most part we did okay, had to disable SSLv2 but that was expected. But we did get picked up on XSS. I'm very new to IIS and only know absolute basic's, what is the simplist way to prevent XSS? One site that I've come across seems to suggest that it could be done through Request Filtering but I don't know where to begin. Thanks, AStaley.
