[nsp-sec] Conficker question

Hi,

We have been notified by NSP-SEC of a few systems compromised with this worm. We are trying to determine how our NSP-SEC collegues are seeing this. Our IPS (McAfee Intrushield) is not detecting any hits against the MS vulnerability. Any thoughts on what we need to do to prevent the outbound spread? Inbound, the usual MS ports are blocked and most computers are patched. We suspect the hosts that have been compromised are notebooks bring the worm to the campus.

I appreciate any insight you may provide!

Thanks,

MRD
