Be they intentionally malicious or just a grave error on the part of someone with too much authority in their logon.<BR/><BR/>LisaPAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4285729513030543746.post-10671615146402384592007-10-03T14:22:00.000-07:002007-10-03T14:22:00.000-07:00So Lisa, what you are saying really here is that u...So Lisa, what you are saying really here is that unless you look at the whole thing, just preventing the obvious intruder is only a band-aid and not guaranteed to protect you from more serious attacks including those from within.

That is always of great interest to the NonStop community - new names in the NonStop world, new applications in the NonStop world. <BR/><BR/>I for one try to get any case study I can on active/active implementations for the Availability Digest. It is like pulling hens' teeth. Most companies do not want to expose what they are doing for competitive or legal reasons. I hope that this doesn't extend to people feeding you information.<BR/><BR/>By the way, if you or anyone else know of a system that I could do a case study on, please let me know.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
