I do it all of the time, practically every time I make an infrastructure change which might
be seen from the internet.BUT, this and the last company I worked for had no organized security structure, no IT director type position, no CEO or Operations Manager that would understand this.
What's the group's consensus on allowing security staff to scan the company's external interfaces from their home, to get a true external assessment. I personally don't agree with this for audit and other reasons. Just looking for some other professional viewpoints. Thx.
