All,
	I'm not sure how many of you have had good security audits in the 
recent past so I thought I'd show you this. In summary Secure Network 
Operations, Inc. will do an external security audit of your network for 
approx $1000.00.  If they don't find any vulnerabilities, then the audit 
is FREE and they send you a letter of validation. If they do find 
vulnerabilities, then they charge you and send you a formal report that 
details their finds and grades your network.
	Given some of the new laws that have been passed this seems like a 
pretty good service and a VERY cheap way to validate your companies 
security. Secure Network Operations also has a flawless track record and 
has the references to prove it.
Why do I think this is a good idea? Well, the California identity theft 
law (Civil Code 1798.82),The new federal banking regulations are two 
reasons. They both  make disclosure of a compromise MANDITORY. You need 
to tell ALL of your clients, by law, that you have been compromised and 
that their identities may have been stolen.
So anyway, I'll shut up.  For those of you that are interested check out 
the link below. For those of you that arent, I'm just trying to help 
people out so don't flame me or I'll /dev/null your mail.
