Nonsense. Performing a port scan is trivial and quick, and probably
something every script kiddy has started his attack with since the
beginning of time ( 1-1-1970 ;) ). Ostrich policy is never a good
security policy, as it only serves to give the CIO a warm fuzzy
feeling without achieving anything worthwhile. Only confuses & annoys
the next admin to take your chair.
Tony, normal office workers are NOT script kiddies.
Please REREAD what I wrote and comment IN CONTEXT.
I have very little patience nowadays for "nonsense" comments.
particularly from people with difficulty reading.
OK?
Oh, and there will NOT be a next admin taking my chair, I can assure you
and all the other would be pretenders of that!
