Microsoft announced to a security mailing list on Friday that it had released its latest set of guidelines for securing Windows operating system products. The documents, which can be downloaded from Microsoft's Web site, tell network administrators how to secure wireless networks using servers based on Windows Server 2003.

The set of guidelines follows the Redmond, Wash. company's releases last December. In addition to six documents that describe how to deploy a digital signature-based approach to enhance wireless security, the latest installment includes several scripts to give administrators a starting point for the task.
