Actually a good attorney could tear up any log system even with perfect time stamps. All that need would need to be proved was the fact that it could have been faked.

Logging. I would suspect that any decent lawyer could tear apart logs that had inconsistent time hashes in court. Wes Noonan, MCSE/CCNA/CCDA/NNCSS/Security+ Senior QA Rep. BMC Software, Inc.

Are there any situations where a firewall's acqusition of time could/should be from a network time source? Not necessarily a public source, it could be an "internal" time source. If there are situations where this makes sense, should these same firewalls have battery backed up clocks on board or would that be unnecessary?
