Subject: [SECURITY] Security Audit Vendors/Cost Estimates



We have recently upgraded our network switches and added wireless access
points in our dorms to control user's access to the network right at the
edge. We are evaluating Enterasys N3 switches and RoamAbout Access
Points with their Policy Manager and Dragon IDS for our ResNet. So far
we are very pleased with the results, however we would now like to have
a 3rd party come in an perform an onsite security audit to determine how
well our vendor and network admins have things locked down. We want to
verify security restrictions for both wired and wireless access from our
resident portion of the network to the rest of our network. Does anyone
know any vendors in the DC metro area who offer this kind of service and
might have experience with a college or university?

For those who have done a similar activity in the last year, what should
we expect a vendor to charge for such an audit? Thanks in advance for
any advice and comments on your experience.
