Methodology
Symantec Consulting helps organisations to capitalize on the full capability of Symantec solutions, minimise the
risks associated with implementation of new solutions and reduce the time to realize return on investment.
Windows Server 2003 End-of-Life – the Challenge
Microsoft no longer issues security updates for any version of Windows Server 2003. Customers still running
Windows Server 2003 in their datacenter will need to take steps now to plan and execute
a migration strategy to protect their infrastructure.
Symantec Data Center Security: Server Advanced enables organizations to:
 Harden their physical and virtual servers as well as their private clouds

Continuously monitor the security and compliance posture of their on-premise data centers, public clouds
and private clouds

Protect legacy infrastructure from zero-day threats and new vulnerabilities

Securely transition into software-defined data centers

Enable microsegmentation to deliver application-centric security
Services
Symantec Consulting includes a dedicated Project Manager who oversees the engagement from beginning to
end. Each Consultant works dilligently to arm customers with the tools and know-how to successfully manage
and improve their implementation after the engagement is complete.
Based on our experience with successful Windows 2003 Server Assessments we have developed the following
services to assess Windows Server 2003 risks:

Discovery Workshop – understand the context and use of the Windows 2003 systems, obtain an inventory
and plan out the detailed delivery based on the workshop output.

DCS: SA Low-Level Design – The standard DCS:SA infrastructure design will be adapted to the context of
the customer, utilising the information gathered during the Discovery Workshop.

Implementation and Policy Development – DCS:SA server will be installed and configured according to
the agreed low level design. Policies to protect the Windows 2003 Operating System will be configured,
tested and piloted. A functional DCS infrastructure as well as a tested protection policy for the Windows 2003
Operating System will be available for deployment.

Initial Support to Production Roll-out – assist in the initial production deployment of DCS:SA to endpoints
Outcomes
The outcome of the service is to achieve an implementation of DCS:SA that provides critical protection of the
Windows Operating system and to enable the Customer with a working solution providing the ability to further fine
tune DCS:SA policies as required. Symantec will submit a customer satisfaction survey at the completion of each
engagement.
