Thursday, 1st March 2007
Published by:  Security used to be a peripheral issue for network engineers - an outside danger taken care of by other groups in the IT organization.

When it comes to securing your network from internal threats, there are many steps you can take to pre-empt potential risks.

With routine auditing, vulnerabilities in the network can also be quickly uncovered. |
