('binary' encoding is not supported, stored as-is) Hello list...
   
I'm performing my first pen-test on a network that uses fiber channel for their backup network. The network diagrams show fiber channel switches on the backside and nothing else to prevent access from one
server to another on a different higher security network. Can anyone tell me if it is possible once I compromise one of the servers on the lower security network can I hop across the fiber channel to a server on the
higher security network? If so how would I go about hopping over via the fiber?
   
Thanks...
