The Enemy Within: Firewalls and BackdoorsAdded by Papergrl
Description:
As a modern IT professional you've done all the right things to keep the "bad guys" out: you protected your network with firewalls and/or proxies, deployed anti-virus software across all platforms, and secured your mobile workstations with personal firewalls.
