I think that we're forgetting that most security breaches are internally
based.  While we still need to take measures against external attacks, all
the measures we're talking about won't stop someone already inside the
firewall and the office, if they are determined to get into something and
have some ability to do so.

Software management is not a substitute for people management.

Or you could enable AREA and pass all of the authentication to an external
app that does a better job of locking out brute force attempts

You need 7.0 mid tier and AR server to be secure.  Previous versions are a
joke.  The error message tells you if the account exists and they allow
unlimited attempts to hack the password.  7.0 was developed to meet
government requirements.  You need both 7.0 mid tier and 7.0 AR server.  
You can't upgrade just one or the other and be secure.
