How to secure a Windows 2008 R2 server + SharePoint 2010 to be internet facing?

Question

Need to use SharePoint 2010 as a public facing website. The standalone server will be plugged directly into DMZ.

What steps do I need to take to secure it for this type of environment?

Have you considered using ISA Server or the new Threat Management Gateway for this?

Hmm no I haven't. Is it a bit overkill for a standalone server? – Jon Feb 17 '11 at 11:14
