Would a count of results from your query and "site:com" change anything?<BR/><BR/>Historically speaking, universities were given a black eye because of providing very high speed connections to students and giving them a publicly attackable IP address. Years ago this was brought up and slowly corrected. I know personally we put measures in place years ago and we were considered slightly behind the curve. No doubt smaller institutions have found the task more difficult, but they are probably coming along.<BR/><BR/>As more universities put tighter reins on security by implementing procedures that protect the world from its student populations, my concern shifts to the potentially millions of drones with high speed connections sitting on broadband .com connections.<BR/><BR/>University systems are both countable and accountable whereas .com broadband drones are difficult to track down and impossible to manage from a holistic security perspective.<BR/><BR/>We aren't using hard numbers or media provided statistics here, but wholesale accusation of .edu seems off when .com's are far more numerous and now just as accessible, if not more so.lmjhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07314836942891251422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4352381474931867948.post-32693021211483887132007-09-10T17:03:00.000-07:002007-09-10T17:03:00.000-07:00I understand your comment about educational institutions. <BR/><BR/>But just run this search on Google:<BR/><BR/>sex porn site:edu<BR/><BR/>It's certainly gotten better but it's still quite out there.Sunbelt Software Bloghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18081728049630197403noreply@blogger.com
