What might be my best approach for a very small business to install malware protection on Server 2012?

Hello,
Windows Server 2012 w/ GUI as primary DC, Hyper-V VM's running on this server.  This my 1st stand alone server.
This is a rewrite of the original post to shorten and focus it:
It seems there is plenty of guidance that Defender/Security Essentials can be used on Server 2012.
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh831778 (last line of chart)
http://blogs.technet.com/b/clientsecurity/archive/2012/11/05/more-information-on-microsoft-antimalware-protection-on-windows-8-and-windows-server-2012.aspx
Question 1: Is Defender acceptable from a functional point of view and will it not adversely impact server operation?
The 2nd link above suggests management of security software is an issue.  I'm wondering if my question has been poorly formed because my installation is so simple I'm not seeing the bigger issues of server security.  Obviously security covers a
broad range of issues such as access, protection against accidents, and so on.  And while a server shouldn't be used in a way that exposes it to malware threats, we still have to place antimalware protection on every server, yes?
Question 2: Is the bigger issue with antimalware protection related to managing it across a larger number of servers?  If so, is Defender acceptable in this regard until my systems grows
larger?
Thanks.

Hi Alan Wheeler,
There may have some misunderstand, In Windows 8, Windows Defender replaces Microsoft Security Essentials and System Center Endpoint Protection (SCEP) and Forefront Endpoint
Protection (FEP) will always disable WD during the SCEP/FEP installation process, as far as I know there don’t have the official document indicate the WD support the Windows Server 2012.
More information:
What is Windows Defender?

  • Best approach for handling a Repair business

    Hi All,
    A company provides Repair Services for various branded Products. The manufacturers send their Products for repair along with replacement Parts. The repaired Products are despatched back to the Original Manufacturer with details of Repair (nature of repair, Parts consumed etc.,). The Products are serialized and hence repair details has to be provided for each Unit of the Product.
    After repair, Labour and / or Material Charges (billing) are claimed with the Manufacturer (the company may also use some of their own Parts for repair). Actual cost incurred for Repair is also to be determined.
    Following metrics are to be taken care of:
    Technician’s Performance in terms of no of units repaired per day, % Yield (Out of 100 Units, recovery is 80) Technician wise, Cost of Repair – Actual cost incurred for Repair / No of Units repaired
    What would be the best approach to handle the above scenario in SAP R/3 v 4.7 ?
    Request feedback.
    Thanks.

    Hi Raj,
               the steps for reparis process is as follows
    1.Repair order process
    2.Technical check and reparis processing
    3.outbound delivery and billing
    Repair order process
    1.create the sales order type RAS-repari/service and include the service product and serviceable material over there and save the order
    2. open the sales order in change mode go to menu sales document and deliver change the delivery type to LR i.e return delivery
    3. assign serial number for the serviceable materials
    the path is go to extras-->serial numbers assign and save
    4. go to VL02N and post the goods reciept that means we are taking the goods in to our stores. Then check IQ03 thr which we can display serial number master record and verify.
    Technical check and reparis processing
    1. open sales order in change mode and here we will recognize how the returns were posted
    go to item view-->repair tab in recieved field you can observe the recieved items
    2. below that Business decision: start repair
    you will get the repari procedure these things we can set it in customization.
    the path is sales and distributionsalessales documentscustomer services-returns and repari procedure--define repair procedure
    we have to assign repair procedure to item category
    so that whenever you will put the material through item category we will get our own repair procedure.
    then in the business decision
    we can select how many u want to repair and how many u want to do outbound and how many u want to scrap for scrap items uhave to issue credit memo after this save the sales order
    open sales order in change mode go to editdisplay criteria-all items
    double click on the item sothat you can see the smorder i.e. service order (which gets generated automatically) which we will assign in requirement class.
    Then go to service order confirm the operations and techo the order
    then last step is
    outbound delivery and billing
    we have to send the repaired device back
    go to va02
    and see as soon as we techo the order an outbound delivery is created in repari tab. Perfrom outbound delivery i.e. salesdocument--deliver(need ot remove default delivery type) and save.
    create transfer order and goods issue is posted.
    then go to DP90
    billing request process individually
    give your sales document number
    press save billing request
    then go to sales document billing
    invoice will get generated save it
    settle the service order to sales order thr kO88 and settle the repair order thr VA88
    still if you have any doubts mail me and reward me with points if it is useful to you
    Regards

  • What should be the best approach for a novice like me?

    Hello everyone.
    Please be patient. I'm new to the Adobe software family and I have a lot to learn.
    But I came here to find out the best way to learn in order to do what I want to do with my business.
    What programs do you think I need to master first? What is the most common approach to someone in my situation?
    Basically, this is what to create:
    electronic forms (to send to my clients, where they provide all kinds of information)
    short and long coaching programs (rich in text and image, sort of like an e-book)
    new logo and brand identity
    poster and decal designs
    In the future.. I'd like to develop my own website.
    This is it. Any help is welcome.
    Thanks,
    Gus

    Adobe.com is a good place to start.  They have resources that you can look into getting more info.  My approach would be to try and find some kind of formal training somewhere in your area.  Perhaps there is a local community college graphics department that has a certificate program.  There are also CD/DVD tutorials, but you need to work with other people and do assignments that are part of a curriculum.  If you decide to proceed on your own, start with Illustrator where you can gain skills in line manipulations that can then be used to help you make selections in Photoshop later on.  So, in my opinion, Illustrator first, Photoshop second, Dreamweaver third, and Flash/Fireworks fourth.  This all will take time.  It's impossible to learn all of the applications in a week or two.  That's why I think you will benefit from a formal setting like a classroom where you can ask questions and learn tips and tricks.

  • What is the Best Approach for System Defined Fields and Default values

    Hi ,
    Please let me know that what can be the best approach for providing a Default value for the System defined fields when creating a User and How can we hide the System defined fields at the time of User creation

    You cannot provide default values for any attributes defined in the FormMetaData.xml file. You can only provide default values for fields defined in the User Defined Fields and supply a default value.
    You can using entity adapters to populate some of the values, but you must supply an Organization because there is an entity adapter that you cannot modify that verifies the organization name.

  • Design Patterns, best approach for this app

    Hi all,
    i am starting with design patterns, and i would like to hear your opinion on what would be the best approach for this app. 
    this is basically an app for data monitoring, analysis and logging (voltage, temperature & vibration)
    i am using 3 devices for N channels (NI 9211A, NI 9215A, NI PXI 4472) all running at different rates. asynchronous.
    and signals are being processed and monitored for logging at a rate specified by the user and in realtime also. 
    individual devices can be initialized or stopped at any time
    basically i'm using 5 loops.
    *1.- GUI: Stop App, Reload Plot Names  (Event handling)
    *2.- Chart & Log:  Monitors Data and Start/Stop log data at a specified time in the GUI (State Machine)
    *3.- Temperature DAQ monitoring @ 3 S/s  (State Machine)   NI 9211A
    *4.- Voltage DAQ monitoring and scaling @ 1K kS/s (State Machine) NI 9215A
    *5.- Vibration DAQ monitoring and Analysis @ 25.6 kS/s (State Machine) NI PXI 4472
    i have attached the files for review, thanks in advance for taking the time.

    thanks Will for your response,
    so, basically i could apply a producer/consummer architecture for just the Vibration analysis loop? or all data being collected by the Monitor/Logger loop?
    is it ok having individual loops for every DAQ device as is shown?
    thanks.
    You could use the producer/consumer architecture to split the areas where you are doing both the data collection and teh analysis in the same state machine. If one of these processes is not time critical or the data rate is slow enough you could leave it in a single state machine. I admit that I didn't look through your code but based purely on the descriptions above I would imagine that you could change the three collection state machines to use a producer/consumer architecture. I would leave your UI processing in its own loop as well as the logging process. If this logging is time critical you may want to split that as well.

  • What's the best approach for handeling about 1300 connections in Oracle.

    What's the best approach for handling about 1300 connections in Oracle 9i/10g through a Java application?
    1.Using separate schema s for various type users(We can store only relevant data with a particular schema.     Then No. of records per table can be reduced by replicating tables but we have to maintain all data with a another schema     Then we need update two schema s for a given session.Because we maintain separate scheama for a one user and another schema for all data and then there may be Updating problems)
    OR
    2. Using single schema for all users.
    Note: All users may access the same tables and there may be lot of records than previous case.
    What is the Best case.
    Please give Your valuable ideas

  • What are the best approaches for mapping re-start in OWB?

    What are the best approaches for mapping re-start in OWB?
    We are using OWB repository 10.2.0.1.0 and OWB client 10.2.0.1.31. The Oracle version is 10 G (10.2.0.3.0). OWB is installed on Linux.
    We have number of mappings. We built process flows for mappings as well.
    I like to know, what are the best approches to incorportate re-start options in our process. ie a failure of mapping in process flow.
    How do we re-cycle failed rows?
    Are there any builtin features/best approaches in OWB to implement the above?
    Does runtime audit tables help us to build re-start process?
    If not, do we need to maintain our own tables (custom) to maintain such data?
    How did our forum members handled above situations?
    Any idea ?
    Thanks in advance.
    RI

    Hi RI,
    How many mappings (range) do you have in a process flows?Several hundreds (100-300 mappings).
    If we have three mappings (eg m1, m2, m3) in process flow. What will happen if m2 fails?Suppose mappings connected sequentially (m1 -> m2 -> m3). When m2 fails then processflow is suspended (transition to m3 will not be performed). You should obviate cause of error (modify mapping and redeploy, correct data, etc) and then repeat m2 mapping execution from Workflow monitor - open diagram with processflow, select mapping m2 and click button Expedite, choose option Repeat.
    In re-start, will it run m1 again and m2 son on, or will it re-start at row1 of m2?You can specify restart point. "at row1 of m2" - I don't understand what you mean (all mappings run in Set based mode, so in case of error all table updates will rollback,
    but there are several exception - for example multiple target tables in mapping without corelated commit, or error in post-mapping - you must carefully analyze results of error).
    What will happen if m3 fails?Process is suspended and you can restart execution from m3.
    By having without failover and with max.number of errors=0, you achieve re-cycle failed rows to zero (0).This settings guarantee existence only two return result of mapping - SUCCSES or ERROR.
    What is the impact, if we have large volume of data?In my opinion for large volume Set based mode is the prefered processing mode of data processing.
    With this mode you have full range enterprise features of Oracle database - parallel query, parallel DML, nologging, etc.

  • What's Best Approach for Multitrack Classical Music?

    Can someone suggest the best approach for recording classical musicians onto
    four tracks? In this scenario, they play until they make a mistake on, say,
    measure 24, stop, then (take 2) go back to measure 20 and play until the next
    rough spot, and so on. Ultimately there may be 15 takes that all need to be
    trimmed and stitched together.
    In the old (tape) days, this was pretty basic editing. I would use a blade and block
    to cut out all the bad stuff on the multitrack tape, then I could mix. But how do I
    do this in Audition? (I use version 1.5.)
    I can't do the cuts it in edit view because the tracks would get out of sync
    Assuming all the takes are in one session, in multitrack view, this most basic of
    functions seems to elude me. What am I missing?

    If you follow Steve's advice, and after doing the edits you discover
    that one instrument should come up 1db, you are screwed.
    I could be wrong about this in the classical music environment,
    where things are not close-mic'ed but if I am, I am confident Steve
    will correct me.  Ha.
    You always run the risk of small changes between takes - and that's where Audition 3 and the new improved crossfades score rather heavily. You won't notice 1dB on a single instrument across a fade though - it's hard to spot this as a jump, even, unless it's on pure tone. No, I very rarely close-mic stuff at all, although I did with a clavichord recently - it's seriously too quiet to mic any other way.

     when recording classical music, any engineer worth anything has the mix down pat as it's being recorded. 
    That's the way they used to work, certainly - but not nowadays, especially if it's done on location, which most classical recording is. What's more likely to happen is that you'd use decent mic preamps feeding straight into a multitrack, or even some software on a laptop. I generally record like that - but I also feed the multitrack outputs to a Yamaha mixer via ADAT, do a mix on that and record it back to a spare multitrack pair. I don't actually need to do that - but having a mix available from the multitrack that's pretty much there is good as far as being able to play back takes to conductors is concerned.
    Of course, one of the other reasons that classical sessions recorded on location aren't mixed on the spot is that the monitoring conditions are invariably far from ideal, and I'd have it that no engineer worth anything would ever risk a final mix done on location.
    But I only get paid to do all of this on a regular basis, so what would I know? Must be something though - my customers come back for more...

  • What is the best approach for combining events?

    When I work on a wedding my current workflow involves creating a compound clip for each section of the video (e.g. reception, ceremony, dancing etc). Then I add the compound clip 'sequences' into a single project to add the chapter markers and export to a single master file.
    I like the idea of managing each section in a project rather than a compound clip now that projects are part of the library in 10.1, but is there a good way to combine multiple projects (for each section) into a single master project, or would I still need to copy the contents of each project and paste in the master project?
    Maybe I am best to continue with my current workflow.

  • Best approach for IDOC - JDBC scenario

    Hi,
    In my scenarion I am creating sales order(ORDERS04) in R/3 system and which need to be replicated in a SQL Server system. I am sending the order to XI as an IDoc and want to use JDBC for sending data to SQL Server. I need to insert data in two tables(header & details). Is it possible without BPM?  Or what is the best approach for this?
    Thanks,
    Sri.

    Yes, this is possible without the BPM.
    Just create the Corresponding Datatype for the insertion.
    if the records to be inserted are different, then there wil be 2 different datatypes ( one for header and one for detail).
    Do a mutlimapping, where your Source is mapped into the header and details datatype and then send using the JDBC sender adapter.
    For the strucutre of your Datatype for insertion , just check this link,
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/7e/5df96381ec72468a00815dd80f8b63/content.htm
    To access any Database from XI, you will have to install the corresponding Driver on your XI server.

    Has anybody ever tried this? Any pointers????

    Hi ,
    The JCo lookup is internally the same as the Jco call. the only difference being you are not hardcoding the system related data in the code. So its easier to maintain during transportation.
    Also the JCO lookup code is more readable.

  • Best Approach for Reporting on SAP HANA Views

    Hi,
    Kindly provide information w.r.t the best approach for the reporting on HANA views for the architecture displayed below:
    We are on a lookout for information mainly around the following points:
    There are two reporting options which are known to us and listed below namely:
    Reporting on HANA views through SAP BW  (View > VirtualProvider > BEx > BI 4.1)
    Reporting on HANA views in ECC using BI 4.1 tools
            Which is the best option for reporting (please provide supportive reasons : as in advantages and limitations)?
             In case a better approach exists, please let us know of the same.
    Best approach for reporting option on a mixed scenario wherein data of BW and HANA views is to be utilized together.

    Hi Alston,
    To be honest I did not understand the architecture that you have figured out in your message.
    Do you have HANA instance as far as I understood and one ERP and BW is running on HANA. Or there might be 2 HANA instance and ERP and BW are running independently.
    Anyway If you have HANA you have many options to present data by using analytic views. Also you have BW on HANA as EDW. So for both you can use BO and Lumira as well for presenting data.
    Check this document as well: http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-34403
