Introduction 
The idea of \u200b\u200ball new products, Microsoft is providing tools that allow a much more easy, efficient and providing safe high quality services with simplified management that allows companies to focus their efforts on their core business.
Windows Server 2008 is based on 3 pillars:
- More Control: Using tools such as Power Shell, Firewall, Server Manager, IIS 7, BitLocker, Server Core, among others.
- More Protection, Windows Service Hardening (watch that is not abnormal activity of critical services, file system, network and registry) Network Access Protection, Rights Management Services, Domain Controller read-only ( RODC), PKI, Policy on removable devices, Bitlocker, User Account Control.
- Greater Flexibility: more flexible tools of diagnosis, improvements in terminal services (Remote Programs, TS Gateway), Deployment Services.
I hope to expand information services mentioned features in my next article. For now I start discussing something about ICT: Console
ICT (Initial Task Conection): Because the installation is easier and requires no user intervention, no configuration tasks that must be done the first time you start the server. In this console you can configure:
- Administrator name and password
-
Zone
-
Network Configuration Host Name and Domain
-
- Feedback
- Automatic Updates
-
Add Roles - add features
- Allow Remote Desktop
-
Configure Firewall Settings
default: Administrator password blank, random name assigned in the facility, a member of WORKGROUP, automatic updates disabled, DHCP, Firewall on, no role installed.
