In this paper, I will provide an overview of Outlook Web Access and how it functions to deliver Exchange server mail via HTTP. Next, I will take an in-depth look at four primary areas of concern in securing OWA; 1) the foundation technology, 2) encryption and authentication, 3) network architecture and, 4) logoff. Finally, I will review various products that offer a more secure way to deploy OWA than the off-the-shelf solution. It is my goal to heighten the reader's awareness of the potential security risks associated with Outlook Web Access and to provide sufficient technical information regarding options for securely deploying OWA such that administrators can make informed decisions to narrow the direction they wish to take their own deployment efforts. This paper is not an endorsement for any one product or solution.
