Preparing Your Staff

Security technologies need to be deployed and managed by very capable and trustworthy people. They must integrate the entire network and network security infrastructure so that you can eliminate or minimize weaknesses. As the environment and requirements change, they must continually maintain the integrity of the network security infrastructure.

A critical factor for ensuring the success of your network security staff is to be sure they are well trained and kept up-to-date as technologies change. The staff needs to take time to learn Windows 2000, particularly its network security technologies. They also need to have opportunities to reinforce their training with experimental work and practical application.

In addition, the network security staff must familiarize themselves with network security issues in general. Many books about this topic are available, and the Internet has many sites that address network security.
