How to secure my webserver

[Raghu Raman]

Hi

we maintain the .net app in our webserver.
It is assigned a public ip,so that our client could easily see and work
with the project we design.

simply by typing the Ip address followed by the virtual dir name ,they
could open our .net app running.

**
Is it possiable to the intruders to get the source code or any data if
they know the public ip of our system ?.

**
If they try , will the windows server ask for the permission?

If so pls tell me how can i protect that.

Thanks & Regards
Raghu

It will ask for the permission if you configured your application with
some sort of authentication. You could for example use Windows
authentication (which I believe is the default). In that case, people
should be prompted for a login, assuming you deny access to all pages
for unauthenticated users. You can find more information about this at
