I am looking for good books and/or URLs on
the best practices for securing a standalone laptop
running WinXP. How should the built-in crypto be
configured? Is the built-in crypto worth using or
is there an add-on product that is much better?
Is there any public review of the built-in crypto
design? I am very familiar with the CryptoAPI and
CSP layers, but not the file/folder/partition layers.
Where is a good checklist of service to turn off
and things to configure carefully?
Yes, I know that a custom Linux system would be
better, but that is not an option.
