I find this interesting, given the number of members of Omninerd who are affiliated with the computer industry in one way or another.

RE: No comments? by VnutZ :: NR8

I've always been bothered with the fact that control systems are ever remotely accessible. I suppose somewhere, someone can make the argument that in an emergency situation, an expert can remotely take charge and correct an issue. I for one think that if your employees cannot be trained to be experts on their equipment, then you need to hire better employees. There is no legitimate reason for critical control systems to be on a network accessible outside the facility.
