The most interesting bit for me in this article MIT’s open network is essential to collaboration in teaching and learning at the Institute, Fitzgerald says. “IS&T is working to identify and address other vulnerabilities that present a risk to the campus network and key services — although the nature of these complex systems makes it difficult to eliminate risk completely,” she says. “Community members should be assured that particular attention is being paid to minimizing risks and outages in the future.” In my books, this is a trade off - if you want to keep your networks open, you will invite some trouble.
