Security Self-Assessment Guideline and Checklist for General Practitioners (the Security Guidelines).
Dr Horst Herb formulated the original LAN Firewalls document with subsequent input from Dr Ian Cheong,
Dr Rob Hosking and Dr David Guest. Further technical expertise was received from the Broadband for

based officers of the Australian Divisions of General Practice.
