I think that the approach here is to find the executive level people to whom those people report, and explain to _them_ that if they don't get their houses in order, the government is likely to do it for them.
Sounds good. Now we just need someone to send around a press release stating that 1 out of 3 (asshole statistic) corporations, government organizations, and educational institutions are unwittingly helping Cyber-Terrorists commit their evil deeds; and 25% of those (another asshole statistic) don't care that they're aiding and abetting these criminals. Basically, we want to shame these companies into fixing their networks. Public image is a killer. Sensationalism can be your friend, if used right }:> -dalvenjah -- Dalvenjah FoxFire (aka Sven Nielsen) "Life is anything that dies when Founder, the DALnet IRC Network you stomp on it." -Dave Barry e-mail: dalvenjah () dal net WWW: http://www.dal.net/~dalvenjah/ whois: SN90 Try DALnet! http://www.dal.net/
