I ask, in your analysis, have you ever experienced any security risk with [Skype] or some behavior that may affect the security of the network?
There have been concerns about Skype's security - in particular its use of cryptography - in the past. There is a thread on Perry's crypto called "Can Skype be wiretapped by the authorities?", started by Axel H Horns on 4/27/2004, that should be of interest to you.
