Are you familiar with the OSI model?
I don’t mean to be a smart ass but, I am going to come off that way by virtue if the challenge and tenor of your response.
I get paid big bucks to do this for many corporations and most of the people on these threads are fairly familiar with me.
If you are not, then I excuse you.
Further, if you aren’t at least familiar with the OSI model, then my response require more words than I might usually employ.
Let me know.
If you’re not familiar with the OSI, mouse trapping, white hatting, encryption, various software strategies for firewalling, etc then I’ll have to give a fairly complete and fulsome response which I probably don’t have time to construct.
I did write something on this subject a year or two ago and it might be useful.
Sincerely,
Your nOOb.
Its cool to be pedantic. I’ve no problem with it either.
