[QUOTE="McBie, post: 1710256, member: 54417"] As you can see ... many interpretations and opinions on " security " . The good thing is that all these posts are " food for thought " ! Back to basics .... 1. Understand the vulnerabilities of your operating environment ( that is different than your operating system ) 2. understand the threats that are out there ( that means you have to read up on things and understand that threats are 24 x 7 ) 3. Determine your appetite to risk. 4. Understand that you are the weakest link. 5. Implement the controls you see fit. All the rest is me and others talking about experiences and I ( and others ) do not have a crystal ball .... We only have trends..... things that happend in the past. Also .... things that did not happen in the past are irrelevant. And some of us are lucky to fight a daily battle in an attempt to protect the crown juwels of our employer. I am proud to be one of them. Cheers ... McBie [/QUOTE]
