> Does anybody know a good internet source of actual security related real life cases?
Unfortunately, some of what you're asking isn't really the issue you may think it is...for example, "no remote access via modem" (depending on exactly what you mean). Remote access isn't that much of a security risk, as long as it's implemented, configured, and managed/monitored appropriately. W/ regards to "no weak passwords", that's easy enough...MS released a security advisory in Aug, and re-released it in Sept. Evidently there was a rash of systems getting infected w/ IRC bots, due to weak or non-existant Administrator passwords. W/ regards to forwarding corporate email to another account...in many cases, that's simply against policies. I mean, if it's A Very Bad Thing(tm) if someone hacks the remote account and gains access to the data, it really isn't so different from writing your SSN and CC numbers on a piece of paper, and leaving it sitting on a park bench. __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
