There's a lot of FUD being touted by firewall vendors about the
possibility
of a home computer being hacked, then the attacker using that computer's VPN connection to the office to break into the company network. I can see this as a possibility and realize that we could easily get into an extended discussion of the probability/impossibility/inevitability of
it
occurring. I personally want to avoid speculation. Does anybody know of an actual incident where this attack was used, successfully or not? Thanks, -Jim
Wasn't this the source of the compromise in Microsoft's network a couple years ago? Josh _______________________________________________ firewall-wizards mailing list firewall-wizards () honor icsalabs com http://honor.icsalabs.com/mailman/listinfo/firewall-wizards
