    Hello all:

    I need to put together an "authorization form" for clients, to allow us
    to do things like port scans, penetration testing, etc.

       1. Is there a boilerplate contract out there somewhere that we can
    use as a starting point?
       2. Is there a source for these kind of documents?
       3. Anybody have particular experience with any language that can
    either prevent litigation, or save your "bacon" in case there is any?

    Thank you all.
