Hi all,

I was wondering... How many of you are working for a SoC rather then being
emplyed by an organisation who just does their own IT? In my case I am
working for an organsiation that does their own IT (aprox 2500 users, 600
server, 2 locations, Internet connection (of course) ).

I find it difficult to find the time to really maintain the IPS environment
in a decent way (SP 2.0, 2 Scanners, 30-50 host sensor, 2 G200's). Currently
we are using a default ISS policy, but I feel it is not the right way to go.
I'ld rather see servers grouped and maintain a policy per server group, then
one policy. I mean, a one policy definately doesnt fit all. We use SMTP
content scanners, Proxyies, webservers, smtp, dns, ssh, ssl, ipsec, etc. I
feel a far more granular control is needed.

So the question is, when you are working for an organisation that does their
own IT and is comparable to the seize of the company where I work, do you do
IDS / FW / Patching (combined or inidividual) etc as a main job or do you do
it "on-the-side"?

regards,

Richard
