Product Evaluations and Comments
Not sure if I am following protocol for this list, but I was hoping to get constructive comments to product eval comparisons between Riverstone Cisco. If anyone has performed evals between these two vendor products I would welcome that info off-list... Regards, Don Lundquist [EMAIL PROTECTED] (704)264-1060

Security specialists can't be everywhere, can't do everything, and can't stop every bad thing. The reality is the people who have the biggest impact on security don't have security in their job title. Instead of a neighborhood watch do we need a network watch? While we need a few people with deep security knowledge, we also need to spread a thin layer of security pixie dust throughout the entire organization. Is it really a lack of control. While some security specilists carry a big stick, on most projects security is just one of many specialities required to work together. If you are a security specialist, just getting invited to a project before its finished is a major accomplishment.
