RE: which do you think can provide better protection against Trojan horses?

["faruk" <nagorifaruk () gmail com>]

Buddy,

No one can provide you protection against well programmed Trojan
horse...Once that is in into your enterprise its really night mare to
detect. One of my friend has gone through very recently a Trojan horse nigh
mare which was infecting our NAS drives and some psycho guys were asking for
money to get code for decrypting all the files, data was in Tera bytes.

But of course well defined access control list protect you till some extent.
Also, I am still confused about what capabilities you talking here about.

Thanks,
-Faruk

That's a strange enough, out of context question to make me feel like
the list is being asked to do some professor's very poorly defined
homework question. 

Or is there a real world problem you're trying to solve?  

If the latter, please describe in more detail.

Best Regards,
