Security design methodology

[Alex Creek <acreek83 () yahoo com>]

Lately I've been doing some research into network security.  For anyone with experience in network security 
design/build,  is there a method for what to do first when planning?  For example, should security be planned 
externally first then internally or vice versa? Which system is the most important?  Does everything need to work with 
firewall xyz or does everything need to work with a monitoring system abc?
