anyone on the local network so is it really an issue?
Depends on how well the "local" network is firewalled.
Are there possibly uh... strange people on your local net?
We run our test gear on a local network, with its own PC ethernet card and maybe a hub, not connected to our company network or to the world. Sometimes USB.
They should not have hazards like that, but it wouldn't be a big deal to us. Somebody inside our test department isn't going to hack a scope, or hit it with a hammer.
Our giant LeCroy scope runs Windows 7, brousers and all.

I doubt your lecroy has a telnet server running it. Telnet server the biggest security hole in *any* network.
Sounds like a great reason to use a headless scope over USB 3.0 to a PC. Heck, better yet to ditch Windows and use Linux.
There's a company that makes a good, inexpensive 32 channel logic analyzer this way. But they still don't support Linux, otherwise I would have bought one a long time ago.

Why? I haven't used a logic analyzer in, um, 30 years.
