Identify Access Points

In the electronically open organization…

• Who has access to your internal network?

– Employees in the office or remote, using VPNs

– Contractors, consultants, temporary workers

– Customers, suppliers, and partners via extranet

– Outsiders who have penetrated the perimeter

• Operations and resources are becoming more distributed – security must follow

• Perimeter firewalls, Network IDS systems, VPNs, & authentication are insufficient in this environment.
