Motion motion detectors and video surveillance? You have they same equivilent when trying to access systems remotely. Why not just treat them the same. Video tapes=Log files Dale C wrote:
How about above ceiling motion detectors? They were used pretty heavily at one of the places I used to work at. Well placed video surveillance would also be a good deterrent....

Often the walls don't extend above them, just lift the ceiling tile and go over the wall. This isextremelycommon, and easily exploited. Further, there if often some accessible office/room next to the target, offering a concealed place from which to work.How would you protect those areas? One of the other offices in our building got hit because of people doing that, and it still makes me nervous that our offices are setup that way. I don't know enough about physical protection measures to know what to put up there - heck, barbed wire? Radar sentry guns? :-) SeanMike -- SeanMike Whipkey - Damnit. Where's my witty repartee? "Ow!
