The reality is that the larger and more complex a network/s gets the more likely there is that a hole exists. This is why I have always been a huge proponent of job descriptions/duties for computer personnel. One of them being that vendor sites will be checked regularly for patches/updates. That would cut down on a lot of the problems we often see. Thanks for your comment! --Don Hi Chris,

I agree with this, to an extent. You would think that our government would establish some type of check system for this type of thing! On the up side, at least extremely sensitive info. wasn't lost. “Whenever your network or networks begin to become rather large there is always that chance that something was forgotten.”
