I think Ron has an important point that there is not a difference between the enterprise architecture versus a specific security architecture. I hope that those of us in security do not come across stating that there is a difference. We do tend to have difficulties in identify were certain security controls should reside in the different parts of the architecture. Any thoughts? I like to think that security is what we do across the enterprise and is not its on block in a stack. I also see that the security architecture diagram from the NAC ESA document was referenced. I am proud of that work but when I show that diagram to people, I receive a glazed over deer in the headlights response. Is there a way to simplify that digram for the higher education environment?
