And, to paraphrase what you wrote earlier, some/many of those companies
are beyond our auditing.

No it's not, even allowing for your chav-speak.

Thanks Craig,

I suppose with regards to the "cloud" my reference was more to indicate the
use of a publicly available service. See ZaKat's post earlier regarding the
ability to audit the host company.

It does not mean that the host company is any less secure than a private
cloud, just that you have no way of knowing for sure.

Point taken.

That's one of the reasons that, in looking at freeware, I'm interested
in cloudish things which I can deploy on my own servers that can mimic
the box.nets, etc.

It cuts down on the length of the process that would need to be audited.

thx,
