It seems like he only do outbound testing? Not very helpful and quite limited 
then. Outbound protection is important, but not that important. It's a second 
line of defence. I prefer to stop threats before they get inside. A test of 
inbound protection would be more useful, IMHO.

If you ever go temporarily insane, don't shoot somebody, like a lot of
people do. Instead, try to get some weeding done, because
you'd really be surprised.
