Risk Mitigation for Legacy Windows NT 4.0 Systems
by William Lynch - Manager with CTG’s Information Security Services
Practice - Wednesday, 3 January 2007.

Arguably one of today’s biggest risks for network security and
compliance are lingering systems that are no longer supported by their
vendors. The security flaws in these systems may have been widely known
for years, as is the case with Windows NT 4.0. In this article, we’ll
examine the risks associated with continuing to run these systems as
well as provide some countermeasures that can be used to mitigate these
risks.
