Desparately seeking help in internet security..

Recently, my organisation server was hacked. And I was tasked to review and develop a policy to be put in place to secure our servers from hackers. The irony is I am not even in the Network group. I have little knowledge about security. Can anyone here help me how to approach this and which web site can guide me along.

If you are talking about Microsoft products, then one of the best places to start is www.microsoft.com/security . Look at the ?best practices? papers for installation and operation of their servers. You will also find some very thorough configuration guides on the National Security Agencies website. (http://nsa1.www.conxion.com) There are also a number of great books on the topic. Hacking Exposed, by Scambray, McClure and Kurtz it a wealth of information. You have a formidable road ahead of you. Good luck.
