When the cost is high defense in depth is just duplication of effort.
If you're hosts are nicely firewalled is there a real point to site-wide
firewalling? Same thing really. It's about distributed computing versus
centralized. and it's about scalable systems mgmt. If you can't control
the client workstation then you're right, you have to centralize. But if
you can control the clients then there shouldn't be a problem
distributing the scanning load to them.
my take.
