Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- In this paper we present a preliminary evaluation of the security of a non-distributed version of Windows NT. The objectives of the work are twofold: first, to learn more about the security system; and, second, to find out how secure the system actually is. Thus the architecture and security mechanisms of Windows NT have been studied. Furthermore, the paper contains a few examples of successful intrusions on the target system, which was a standard personal computer with Windows NT Workstation 3.51 and one with NT Workstation 4.0, both working in a stand-alone mode. We have also found some evidence that other, more severe security flaws exist in the system
