an ideal set-up would be to have hardware ether taps running to
dedicated sensors. They feed into db servers ( what ever your poison)
all running on a separate network not connected to any other network.
Alerts are via festival ( the voice sysnthsis prog) and SMS (so are one
way only) 

this is my dream set-up but is not practical in may situations ( though
it is virtually uncomprimiseable)
