Implementing Server Hardening on SharePoint Servers
After building our QA Server Farm Environment, we installed thrid party Server Hardening software on our web front end servers, that totally knocked out our servers, Web Aplications Created using Central Admin server were not able to Propogate to Web Front end servers, all the SharePoint solutions deployed failed. Luckily we had VMWare backups we were able to restore but there is not much documentation out there about server hardening on SharePoint farm.
Microsoft SharePoint Products and Technologies Team Blog entry has nice collection of links for different security topics on Office SharePoint Server and WSS v3, though some of the MSDN Links are broken. Below are updated links
