If just for them, I'd make sure it's on a stand alone pc, locked down and very restriced access. I also would not put any type of email on it and definitely a virus scanner or two. Now, if you could add a firewall (software or hardware) this might provide you with a temp backup internet connection should your main link go down. I'd regulate who had access to this as well.

Security Pro's: A group of my programmers want to have a DSL connection put in their testing area so they can simulate end user experience across the Internet. I have concerns with this and am curious if anyone else has found a good solution to provision their business requirement without putting the network at risk. I know I haven't gone in to enough detail for an EXACT solution but in general if anyone has any "tips" I'd appreciate it. Thanks! Chris Hylen Data Security
