Security Approval Process

["Debbie Torri" <debbietorri () eudoramail com>]

Hi, 

I currently approve of all production changes to our firewalls (internet and dmz) and also approve all VPN request for 
for external companies that want access into our network. We have 12 firewalls and about 700 production servers (Unix 
and Windows).  

This is my question: Do you do this as part of your job?  I have no clue if this a normal task done by other security 
professionals. What are the pro's and con's of doing this.
