No such thing as a secure network. Unless you are dealing with a physically isolated network (and probably not even then), always assume the bad guy has access to your network. This is one of the basic security lessons I'm having to reteach over and over. "But we have a firewall" is not an excuse for lessening your security one bit. ---- "The speed of communications is wondrous to behold.
