Allowing access to this content only through FTP, instead of network shares
may give you a lot more protection. We had a graphics developer a while
back with network access to tens of thousands of live web graphic files on a
shared web server. He opened an infected email attachment which modified
jpg's and gif's on all mapped drives. We had to restore this content from
backup, which took a couple hours. Now, only FTP access is permitted to
this machine, even though it's on the local network.
