why do companies connect access systems to insecure networks, why?
We just installed another connection at a motel because they give
guests unrestricted access to the internet (they account for 30-40% of
our DMCA notices) and couldnt run their registration system, that all
sits on a shared network behind the free air router we give out, no
security risk there..... right?
