Focusing on the windows server 2012 Operating system, Identify any services that are running or Automatic
that you think could be disabled. You may need to do a little research. Write a memo to management indicating
the services you think should be disabled and clearly explain why.
Your memo should open with specific, compelling reasons why the organization should implement your policy
recommendations. What benefits will be gained? What problems will be solved or alleviated? End with a strong
conclusion. Speak in a language that a manager understands, and make sure you appeal to management
priorities.
Recommendations should be reasonably specific and justified; tell the reader, in top-level terms what actions to
take and why (i.e. “Enable the jatzenframing module on all Linux servers. This will prevent kibabble data
leakage through covert channels”). Your recommendations should stick to policies, and not the series of
mouse-clicks to turn those policies on or off.
