It came in the form of a new exam preparation guide: "Implementing and Administering Security in a Microsoft Windows 2000 Network" (Exam 70-214). I see the 70-214 exam as the first real Windows security exam from Microsoft mostly because exam 70-220, "Designing Security for a Microsoft Windows 2000 Network," -- like most designing exams -- concentrates more on analysis, security policies, postures and solutions than routine day-to-day security. >> Learn more about Ed's opinions of the new exam at http://www.searchWin2000.com/tip/1,289483,sid1_gci837749,00.html =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT WINDOWS SECURITY, MCSE OR NOT! | Webcast Who : Ed Tittel, president of LANWrights, Inc.
