MSCOM team is so nice to publish the Q&A after their webcast series couple days ago.

My fav Q&A:
Hi, does MS.com use ISA Server 2004?
We do not. We are a site that has so much traffic and so any attack attempts that we use other solutions. For  www.microsoft.com we use Cisco Guards do to packet filtering at the edge. We also use acls on the routers and we only allow ports 80 and 443 to have access.
----------
No ISA at all ? LOL, ISA folks for sure not going to be happy when they hear this.
