If you were ever in danger of your company's digital property being compromised, it's over the next several days. How can we be so sure?

November 5 is Guy Fawkes' Day in England, a celebration of the foiling of Fawkes' attempt to blow up the British Parliament in 1605. The day has turned into, however, a rallying date for hackers, anarchists and activists associated with the group, "Anonymous."

A "Million Mask March" has been organized in different cities across the globe, and authorities say the real threat is to the digital environment, as Anonymous looks to hack first. Before it all starts, take a moment to evaluate your digital situation:
