Course Content
Exercise 1: Implementing Messaging Security for Exchange Server Clients
In this lab, you learn various methods to help secure e-mail communication between Exchange Server and desktop clients. You also learn how to improve messaging security using Outlook 2003 attachment options and RPC over HTTP(S), and you learn how to improve security for remote clients using OWA.

- Obtain a digital certificate to be used for S/MIME.
- Send and receive a digitally signed e-mail message.
- Send and receive an encrypted e-mail message.
- Test OWA functionality with signed and encrypted e-mail, and install the S/MIME Control.
Lab : Exercise 2 - Customizing Outlook Security Settings Using the Outlook Security Template
- Install and configure the Outlook Security Template.
- Modify the default security settings to block specific attachments from within Outlook 2003.
Lab : Exercise 3 - Securing Remote Outlook 2003 Connections Using RPC Over HTTPS
- Install the RPC over HTTP Proxy network service.
- Configure the RPC back-end server.
- Configure ISA Server 2004 to listen for traffic destined for the RPC over HTTP service on the Exchange server.
- Configure Outlook to use RPC over HTTPS to connect to the Exchange server.
Lab : Exercise 4 - Securing Outlook Web Access Connections
- Configure OWA to require Secure Sockets Layer (SSL).
- Configure ISA Server 2004 to provide secure access to OWA.
- Enable OWA to use forms-based authentication.
- Install the Outlook Web Access Administration tool.
Exercise 2: Protecting Data Using Rights Management Services
In this lab, you learn how to improve data protection using Rights Management Services (RMS). You learn how to configure Rights Management Services on Windows Server 2003, and you learn best practices for administering rights management servers and clients. You also learn how rights management is supported in Microsoft Office applications.
Lab : Exercise 1 - Installing and Provisioning Windows Rights Management Services
- Install Windows RMS.
- Use the Windows RMS Administration Web page to begin the RMS Provisioning process.
- Enroll the RMS server, and request a new server licensor certificate (SLC).
- Import the SLC (ServerCert.xml) to complete the enrollment process.
- Register the RMS service connection point.
Lab : Exercise 2 - Installing and Activating an RMS Client to Protect Microsoft Office Files and E-Mail Messages
- Install the RMS client.
- Protect a Microsoft Office Word 2003 document using rights management.
- Protect an Outlook 2003 e-mail message using rights management.
- Install and configure the Information Rights Management Add-on for Internet Explorer.
- Open a rights-protected document using Microsoft Internet Explorer and the Information Rights Management Add-on for Internet Explorer.
Lab : Exercise 3 - Administering an RMS Deployment
- Create a custom rights policy template.
- Distribute the custom rights policy template.
- Use the IRMCheck tool to obtain information about the RMS client.
- Use the GetRMScp tool to verify that the service connection point can be located from the client.
- Use the RMS Log Viewer to view RMS-related events.
Lab : Exercise 4 - Sub-Enrolling Additional Licensing Servers
- Configure permissions on the Certification pipeline.
- Install Windows RMS.
- Access the Windows RMS Administration Web page to begin the RMS Provisioning process.

- Remove the modified permissions on the Certification pipeline.
Exercise 3: Improving Remote Access Security
In this lab, you learn how to improve security for clients that connect remotely to your network. You learn how to implement VPN connections to encrypt data communications and how to create a "quarantine" zone in which remote clients can be placed while they are inspected for installed security and software updates.
