Very cool, our journal article looking at firewall management practices managed to make the cover of the ISSA journal. My student Mike Chapple did a very nice survey of current firewall administrators and IT managers to determine what self impressions administrators had of the correctness of their firewall configurations.
The short / sweet version is that firewall configurations are likely wrong and we know it and things are not getting better. System administrators are swamped and hoping that nothing major goes wrong. For those of you in the security business, I highly recommend using it as justification for a better raise or for hiring new people.
