Hi all,

Is it current practice to install an antivirus software on an IIS 6.0 server
even though it has been hardened and placed in a DMZ?

Thanks

I would think so.
Hardening, in and of itself, does not generally protect from Viruses, it
generally protects from "intrusions". I think I would run AV on one if I
had one in that situation.
