Explore Windows Server 2016 security

This foundation session walks you through the current threat environment and the guiding principles that Microsoft used for building Windows Server 2016. Windows Server 2016 delivers layers of protection that help address these emerging threats so that the server becomes an active component in your security defenses. These security protections were built with the mindset of how we deal with the overall threat of ongoing attacks inside the datacenter environment and range from threat resistance and enhanced detection to managing privileged identity and protecting virtual machines from a compromised fabric.
