Would make sure you have a good firewall, not sure if there's a good 
antivirus + antimalware that you can run on it that is still supported. 
Restricting ingress ports from your router may well be enough.

Would avoid using IIS on it, as it's really old and unsupported so may 
have high risk security bugs.  Same for RDP access remotely.  Maybe 
running linux with ssh (on a non-standard port), a better option would 
be wireguard, if you need remote access like that.
