    The NSA has unclassified a pdf on how to secure your network in sixty minutes.

    This was classified? All the information in this document has been freely available on the Web for quite some time now...

    I'm still gonna print this up and put it on my shelf...the NSA logo on the front looks pretty impressive. ^_^
