Securing Windows NT Services
David LeBlanc, Microsoft Corporation
Windows NT installs certain services by default, and others can be added either manually or as part of an application. The question then becomes "What happens when I turn a particular service off?" and "How does a particular service affect the network security of my machine?" This talk will help you to:

	Understand the services running on your machine
	Learn the security implications of each service.
	Understand how to write a secure service.
	Learn information on how to judge the security of a service from a vendor.

NT in the Firewall Environment
Elizabeth Zwicky, Great Circle Associates
As NT becomes a more and more important server platform, an increasing number of people need to run it in a firewall environment; people have NT bastion hosts, firewalls between cooperating NT machines, and NT firewalls. Unfortunately, solid information about NT in this environment is hard to come by, with both pro- and anti-NT camps producing more emotion than data about services, port numbers, and risks. This talk will attempt to provide some actual information about NT and firewalls.

4:00 pm - 5:30 pm  Works-in-Progress
Session Chair: Paul Anderson, University of Edinburgh

Do you have interesting work you would like to share, or a cool idea that is not yet ready to be published? The USENIX audience provides valuable discussion and feedback. Short, pithy, and fun, Works-in-Progress Reports (WIPs) introduce interesting new or ongoing work. We are particularly interested in presentation of student work. Prospective speakers should send a short one- or two-paragraph report to lisant99wips@usenix.org.
