This contribution provides an overview of some of the security aspects of DSL-based corporate networks. With the expansion of the Internet and the increasing use of Internet technology inside the organization, more and more computing resources have become connected to networks that can potentially be reached from outside ­ and inside - the enterprise or individual PC, and from inside the enterprise as well.
