Applies To: Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Server 2012

The topics in this section can help you bring Active Directory Certificate Services (AD CS) into compliance with security configuration best practices. Content in this section is most valuable to administrators who have completed a Best Practices Analyzer scan of AD CS and who want information about how to interpret and resolve scan results that identify areas of AD CS that are noncompliant with security configuration best practices.

Section Heading

The Best Practices Analyzer applies security configuration rules to identify settings that might require modification for AD CS to perform optimally. Security configuration rules can help prevent setting conflicts that can result in error messages or prevent AD CS from carrying out its prescribed duties in an enterprise.
