Hopefully, this drives home the importance of all the various BCPs like iACLs, 
isolated jump-off boxes for interactive access, config-file management, and 
network telemetry - including visibility into DCN/OOB traffic.

There are open-source tools out there which can be used for these purposes.  It 
doesn't require a lot of capex, mainly opex - i.e., elbow-grease.
