If the machine that hosts the push of Norton is compromised then it will
push out bad signatures.
I recently completed a gig for a client in CA where that was the case.
We had to redo almost all
Machines on the network. So, What ever you do, setup a push date on
your machines for once or twice a week.
I keep my push machines offline until the time necessary to push the new
signatures.
Also, create logon scripts that check for current versions of MacAfee
and Norton signatures.
Thank you,
Joseph

What about a worm that comes thru some unexpected future w2k
vulnerability?
Has anyone put Symantec AntiVirus Corporate for the server's own
protection in a ISA 2000 box?
