Other than that, just make sure that oinkmaster is up
and working to keep the client current.

Congratulations!  You've crossed the first hurdle in
becoming a good 
security person - you're paranoid.

Now all you have to do is keep reading and learning
- for the rest of your 
life.

But try to get some perspective.  The clients
*don't* have snort now, 
right?  So all the attacks that you will see in
snort are *already* hitting 
them.  All you're going to do is open their eyes and
reduce their risk 
exposure.
