What does the written security policy state? I would be very surprised that a telco did not have a detailed security policy, not to mention detailed acceptable use policies, employee handbooks, etc :-> My own opinion - there is absolutely no need to integrate the two. There are too many bad things that could result, including compromise of customer information and perhaps even compromise of the phone network itself. The only good thing I can think would happen is that things might become easier for a few data network support people.
