My friend Bill Brenner had an interesting article over at SearchSecurity today. It isn't interesting because the idea that Misconfigured networks create huge security risks is new or groundbreaking, but that it got press at all. Mundane misconfiguration and poor maintenance don't get the attention that cool new vulnerabilities and exploits get- but are more likely to result in systems getting compromised than any of the "sexy" stuff. This is especially true in small business, and Bill points this out.
Anyone who reads my blog or has heard my rants knows that I have been saying this for years, it is good to see someone else saying it.
