I'm not a security expert, but it seems to me there's a significant chance that 
an attacker may be behind your firewall as well - either authorized (e.g. a 
malicious employee, consultant, customer, or other trusted party) or 
unauthorized (a hacker).

Brandon

I am in agreement that the actual risk is fairly limited for most instances 
since everyone is behind a firewall these days
