Microsoft releases free Windows Server 2025 Security Advice Book, and you can get it now

Microsoft recently made Windows Server 2025 widely available, introducing enhanced security features to address modern threats across on-premises, hybrid, and cloud environments. However, with the persistent rise of cyberattacks, including AI-powered, Microsoft is more vulnerable than ever.

This means that administrators responsible for ensuring the security of Windows Server 2025 deployments in their organizations need to be more vigilant than ever.

To help with that, Microsoft has published the Windows Server 2025 Security Advice book, a free PDF download designed for IT professionals working in enterprise environments.

The 19-page book aims to understand better the protections baked into Windows Server 2025. It’s split into eight chapters covering:

1. System hardening and baselines
2. Credential protection and application control
3. Silicon-assisted security innovations
4. Operational security and continuous monitoring
5. Workload security for virtual machines and containers
6. Enhanced network security with micro-segregation
7. Advanced compliance and threat detection

Each chapter dives deep into covering the most important areas of Windows Server 2025 and methods to keep it safe from hard.

Given that mainstream support for Windows Server 2025 ends in October 2029 and extended support extends until 2034, the information in the book should be relevant for the better part of a decade.
