It's all a mix of those depending on where you go.  Australian
government lock their web and machines down pretty tightly.  And they
arn't used to being development shops.  I had to get a special auth to
install software.

Symantec was interesting.  While security was high, and Symantec Anti-
virus on all machine (duh!), I did notice you could browse to sites
that are normally locked down. ebay, facebook etc.  Well, since their
slogan is "confidence in a connected world" it would be hypercritical
for them to lock down their staff while claiming to be empowering the
world.

I worked for a US finance technology company which had wifi
honeypots.  The idea was if you connected to these "free wi-fi"
connections they might come around and break your legs.  But they had
been victim to some scandal so I understand their security.
