Why may I ask you do not agree with this? I work in the Security Group and do it all of the time. Our network is scanned all the time by hackers. So what is the big deal..if everything is hardened you have nothing to worry about. .net wrote:
What's the group's consensus on allowing security staff to scan the company's external interfaces from their home, to get a true external assessment. I personally don't agree with this for audit and other reasons. Just looking for some other professional viewpoints.
