It is just not having a good virus management program in place with appropriate anti-virus software at the server, workstation, laptops, etc with policy, processess, and guidelines - but having a good incident management program in place to deal with these type of threats, etc. Hackers and viruses, worms, etc., enter into your environment via email, poorly configured firewall services, lack of a dual layer IDS system, poorly code WEB application code (through the browser), or lack of anti-virus software. So just turn to your inhouse security professional that has the experience, education, and certifications to address this security solution for you, that why he/she gets the big bucks.

I would be interested in others sharing the level of documentation they are going to in terms of being disrupted by Blaster, etc. Thanks
