Linked off of /.:

        BBC News is reporting that the employees of a company
        pose the biggest threat to security.

Unbelievable!  I've *NEVER* heard this argument before.  Personally I 
think it's ridiculous.  I mean, c'mon, everyone I've ever worked for 
before was completely 100% responsible and accountable.  Users were
always thinking about their actions, taking others into consideration,
behaving maturely, etc.  Where the main stream press gets off 
insinuating that we may need more than firewalls to protect our 
corporate assets I have no idea.  I find this story ludricrous.

Ask any system security expert, and they'll tell you that all you 
need is simply one good firewall.  Something like Checkpoint on NT 
4.0 should be more than adequate.

To distrust your own employees is nothing short of extreme paranoia!
