Congratulations! You've crossed the first hurdle in becoming a good security person - you're paranoid.
I'll be an expert soon, then. :)
Now all you have to do is keep reading and learning - for the rest of your life.
That thought occured to me earlier. I can easily see the amount of knowledge I have to gain mushrooming out of control. :)
Somewhat unrelated question: Once I set this up, how much time should I expect to have to spend on it daily? They want me to do other stuff, like install tripwire and host-based firewalls on all the servers, run nessus against everythig and deal with the results, set up a new mail server, and a myriad of other normal SysAdmin tasks. I certainly hope that Snort doesn't require a lot of care and feeding every day ... but I don't know enough yet to be able to judge that.
