Access the Windows Server VM and perform the following hardening steps:
Disable automatic administrative logon to the recovery console.
Set a BIOS/firmware password to prevent unauthorized changes to the server startup settings.
Configure the device boot order to prevent unauthorized booting from alternate media.
Enable the Windows firewall in all profiles (domain, private, public) and configure it to block inbound traffic by default.
Perform port blocking at the network setting level. Perform an analysis to determine which ports need to be open and restrict access to all other ports.
Disable NetBIOS over TCP/IP and remove ncacn_ip_tcp.
Check the Windows Defender settings.
Configure allowable encryption types for Kerberos.
Do not store LAN Manager hash values.
Set the LAN Manager authentication level to allow only NTLMv2 and refuse LM and NTLM.
Remove file and print sharing from network settings. File and print sharing could allow anyone to connect to a server and access critical data without requiring a user ID or password.
Disable unneeded services. Most servers have the default install of the operating system, which often contains extraneous services that are not needed for the system to function and that represent a security vulnerability. Therefore, it is critical to remove all unnecessary services from the system.
Remove unneeded Windows components. Any unnecessary Windows components should be removed from critical systems to keep the servers in a secure state.
Enable the built-in Encrypting File System (EFS) with NTFS or BitLocker on Windows Server.
