Hello Chris

Look at the services configuration, you often have a "listen on" option

Example : DNS server

By default DNS is listening on all interfaces, you can verify with netstat
Command

netstat -an |find ":53"
UDP 0.0.0.0:53

Go to DNS server's config panel, and set an address to "listen to", let say
It should be bound to the internal address 192.168.25.16

Netstat will then show
UDP 192.168.25.16:53

Other interfaces (like WAN) shouldn?t reply to DNS requests.

Hope that helps

Have a nice day

Maxime Ducharme

Hello everybody!

When it comes to Windows hardening and in specific restricting
Windows' services, the only suggestions that I've found so far are:
*) disable unnecessary services
*) restrict network access through packet filtering

What else can be done and isn't it possible to bind Windows' services
to a specific address/interface, e.g. LAN.

Thanks in advance
Chris
