Good point, nothing is considered trusted anymore. Do you have specific
rules in place only allowing certain ports over your VPN's and another to
block everything else?

How much do you trust the people and physical access controls in Mexico?
How locked down are their computers and the network? If something gets

company. That's a risk I was not prepared to take with our Asian
subsidiaries even though they were our employees.
