Why is it that every company out there allows connections through their

based IP addresses and then allow others as needed? The only case I can
think of would be traveling folks that need to VPN or something, which
could be permitted in the Firewall, but WHY WIDE OPEN ACCESS? We still
seem to be in the wild west, but no-one has the b@lls to be braven and
block the unnecessary access.
