But Ed wouldn't a VPN require transport or tunnel peering? This probably
wouldn't be realistic from all locations. If all sessions are from
administrable hosts then I'd agree that a vpn would be ideal. Maybe i'm
missing something. more info would help.
Rob, either way, given the cost and flexibility I'd use ssl for OWA.
Overhead would be contingent on your pipes, etc, but probably won't be an
issue. As you know, right now the payload of your http transactions is "in
the clear".

No. You're stupid not to be employing a VPN.

Subject: SSL Question
Hello all--
We currently don't use SSL for our remote OWA transactions, though we do use
Windows Integrated Authentication to encrypt passwords. We are not carrying
on communication which it's critical to have encrypted, so I made the
judgement that encrypting everything wasn't worth the overhead of SSL.
So, I guess my question is, Is that judgement wrong? Are we really stupid
not to be using SSL on OWA?
Rob
