physical and logical security
Hello,
what are the security best practices in physical (armored door, heavy locking and wall materials and card only access to server room and client computers etc) and logical(complex passwords, security permissions etc) terms.
Also when a company provides a service using lots of IT methods, like mail service with exchange 2010 and file service with win 2008 r2 dfs that contains sensitive data, what are the best practices that the company is bound to take in order to be legit and
avoid a law suit against it in case of data leakage.
Thank you,

Hi,
In addition to the above suggestions, I suggest you also read the following articles:
Best Practices for Enterprise Security
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc750076.aspx
Enterprise Security Best Practices
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd277328.aspx
Meanwhile, you can use Microsoft Security Assessment Tool 4.0. It is a risk-assessment application designed to provide information and
recommendations about best practices for security within an information technology (IT) infrastructure. For more information, please refer to:
