I am arguing against a request to allow a connection from within the Internal network
to the Outside because it needs to be a persistent connection. I can lock it down by
source and destination and it will be put through a plug proxy. The connection stream
is 3DES encrypted. Which are all good things but I am uneasy about a persistent
connection. My stand has been that it is much higher risk to leave a connection open
than to allow an intermittent connection. My argument is weak in facts.
Can the group either direct me to a good source or provide information on why I
should continue the fight.
