If you're already using a switch, it's possible to sniff a switched network, but very difficult, especially remotly. If you have any form for RAS or VPN, make sure no one has unauthorized access to these devices. You may also encrypt your emails leaving outlook from all clients. Encrypted email is stored on the exchange server still encrypted (assuming you're using PGP) and will stay encrypted until the actual reciver gets the message, at which point it will be decrypted by the recipient. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- This list is provided by the SecurityFocus Security Intelligence Alert (SIA) Service.
