OK, so call this OTT, (and Marcus...stop me when I go too far!)

Does the group consider the use of Electro-Magnetic Radiation scanning
tools, keyboard taps etc. outside the scope of a 'normal' test.

I suppose one has to define what a 'normal' penetration test is, and
certainly it ain't the job of a firewall to cater for that type of
compromise, but more the job of the policy.
