Hey,
How cautious are you with personal security? I'm talking about your desktop computer, laptop etc. - not servers..
I've always been pretty cautious, infact all the computers I use are behind a dedicated gateway/firewall computer. I also installed PGP today and encrypted my hard drive incase somebody managed to get through the firewall..
Just curious :cool:

my small home network is behind a dedicated hardware firewall + router, all workstations + laptops run zonealarm + norton antivirus.
hmm. that's about it.

we have a dedicated proxy running a hardened bare/base operating system plus a firewall on each of our desktops.
I use PGP (v6.5.8) too, mostly to encrypt customers data and other secret stuff :flamethr:

the only time i say u guys should be concerned with security is if you run a *nix based OS and you have services open that could put you in some trouble
that or some microsoft vulnerability i suppose
