This paper describes the Microsoft Security Configuration Tool Set, a set of Microsoft Management Console (MMC) snap-ins designed to reduce costs associated with security configuration and analysis of Windows NT and Windows 2000–based operating system networks. The Security Configuration Tool Set allows you to configure security for a Windows NT or Windows 2000–based system, and then perform periodic analysis of the system to ensure that the configuration remains intact or to make necessary changes over time. It is also integrated with Windows Administration Change and Configuration Management to automatically configure policy on a large number of systems in the enterprise.
