1Overview


Welcome to the Windows 7, Server 2008 R2 Common Criteria Supplemental Administrator’s Guide. This guide describes how to setup Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 to meet the same security conditions used by the Common Criteria (CC) evaluation.

Microsoft engineering teams, consultants, support engineers, partners, and customers have reviewed and approved this prescriptive guidance to make it:



  • Proven. Based on field experience.

  • Authoritative. Offers the best advice available.

  • Accurate. Technically validated and tested.

  • Actionable. Provides the steps to success.

  • Relevant. Addresses real-world security concerns.

This guide is a supplement to the Windows 7 Security Baseline and the Windows Server 2008 R2 Security Baseline published by Microsoft. It provides the additional installation, configuration, and security information required to reproduce the security level of a Common Criteria-evaluated system.

Important If configuration recommendations in the general technical documentation or Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 are not consistent with the instructions in the Windows 7, Server 2008 R2 Common Criteria Guide, the information in the Windows 7, Server 2008 R2 Common Criteria Supplemental Administrator’s Guide takes precedence and applies as this was the configuration used during the Common Criteria Evaluation.
