Cisco IOS Stolen...now what?

[cookie101]

Hey everyone,

I've been a little worried over the recent information that the Cisco IOS source code has been stolen. Anyone know of any ramifications from this? Is there any security issues my company should be aware of?

it will take someone a while to write a exploit program, but I wouldn't lose sleep over it. If you use your router for VPN or firewall protection, you may want to get backups. The worst case is probably just a router crash or shutdown. Nothing a reboot wouldn't solve.
