Well I'll be dog gone! I just wasn't aware of such devices out there in the
market (and I thought I was up to date! evidently not).

We protect our network with IPS (TopLayer), IDS (Juniper and GFI LANGuard &
SNORT) and Firewall (Juniper Netscreen) and always thought that would be
enough, but SQL injection has always been a concern. Since we are not able
to actively defend it - its in our TOS/SLA that we do NOT defend against
SQL Injections.

Thanks to all who pitched in an answer/suggestion.
