What are predefined security templates?

Rating:

Predefined security templates are used for creating security policies for a network or computer. These security templates can be used to configure an individual computer or group of computers. By default, the predefined security templates are stored in the SYSTEMROOTSECURITYTEMPLATES folder.

The following predefined templates are available with the Windows Server 2003 operating system to help administrators secure a network or computers based on the needs of their organizations:

  • Default security (SETUP SECURITY.INF)

  • Compatible (COMPATWS.INF)

  • Secure (SECURE*.INF)

  • Highly Secure (HISEC*.INF)

  • System root security (ROOTSEC.INF)

  • No Terminal Server user SID (NOTSSID.INF)
Administrators can configure individual computers with the Security Configuration and Analysis snap-in, by using the SECEDIT.EXE command prompt tool, or by importing the template into local security policy.
