We've got this document on the company's public-facing web site:
http://www.genuity.com/securitymatters/rundown004.htm

and I think we've also got some more  documents that our Customer Service 
Center distributes.
Have you tried calling Genuity and asking?  I would expect that you would 
get a productive response.

cheers
