SmoothWall Corporate Server is an extremely effective way of turning a PC into a dedicated hardware firewall sitting on its own hardened operating system. The company has now released a bolt-on to the Corporate Server to provide even more protection - Smooth Guardian, a multi-layered content filtering package.

CyberGuard offers a range of firewall/VPN appliances with specifications ranging from three Ethernet interfaces and 125Mbits/ sec throughput to 21 Ethernet interfaces and 2Gbits/sec throughput. All have an integrated VPN, run the same firewall software, and have the same configuration GUI. We tested model KS1500, which can have up to 18 Ethernet interfaces, of which two are gigabit-over-copper as standard.
Performance is the strength of the KS1500, which is designed to cope with 1.5 Gbits/sec throughput and up to 1.2 million simultaneous connections. The firewall boasts a host of certification standards including Common Criteria Eval­ uation Assurance Level 4+ (EAL4+), ICSA, ITSEC E3, Checkmark, etc. The secure operating system was designed to meet TCSEC/NCSC criteria at the 'Orange-book' B2 level.

This is a software solution that functions as a firewall and proxy server and caches web content to improve browsing speeds.

Events Per Second, or EPS, as it is commonly referred to in the world of network security, is a measurement that is used to convey how fast a network generates data from its security devices (firewalls, Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS), servers, routers, etc.), and/or how fast an SEM product can correlate data from those devices. A savvy buyer will match the EPS his network is generating to those that can be accommodated by the SEM tool that he is purchasing.

Produced by McAfee, and the only Host-based IPS (HIPS) tested, Entercept monitors events at the operating system or application server level. As it does not deal with network-based exploits, it is very complementary to existing solutions that deal with attacks on that level, such as firewalls and network-based IDS or IPS products. The latest version adds welcome new features such as a new licensing scheme, key backup capabilities, additional reports, OS lockdown and custom signatures, as well as numerous improvements "under the hood."

For some time now, the problem for security professionals has not been "do I need AV protection" but more specifically "which one is best for my corporate needs." But with so many other danger areas for security administrators to concentrate on, leading to the provision of intrusion detection systems, intrusion prevention systems, firewalls and virtual private networks, to name but a few, it is crucial to make the right decision when they have a large array of other security solutions already running.
Providing all you need for network screening and stability can be a tall order, so whichever anti-virus solution is relied upon - software- or hardware-based, or a mix of both - it has to be dependable, be able to fully integrate with everything else running on the network, and provide 100 per cent system integrity.

While Internet security has always been important, only recently has it emerged as an important issue for almost all who use the Internet. Networking solutions company D-Link and Swedish IT security supplier Clavister are to team up to produce firewalls.

This product is built upon Sun's very secure Trusted Solaris 8 operating system, which has been used by the U.S. Department of Defense for over 25 years. It is a hardened version of the Solaris operating system platform for deployment of high-security desktops, database servers, firewalls, and communication gateways.

As firewalls go, the CyberGuard SL3200 is a monster: a huge, noisy beast with performance that matches its rugged looks. The name denotes its capacity - 3.2 gigabits of total throughput, shared among a maximum of 26 Ethernet ports. Even more notably, it is able to multiplex several interfaces into a small number of very high-capacity pipes, all secured at wire speed.
Designed for high-demand environments, the box has all the HA features you'd expect - hot-swappable fans and power supplies, as well as RAID 5 storage, with an internal layout designed for maximum airflow and heat dissipation. Fail-over between two boxes is available if you have an extended license.

SonicWALL is well known for its firewalls, but it is now starting to add optional functionality to the range. The model tested came with the extra-cost items of content filtering and anti-virus. Vulnerability assessment is another optional extra, but was not supplied on the review unit.

In an effort to boost sales and generate revenue, one U.S. multinational energy company recently embraced the Internet to bolster external communication and internal collaboration.

Fortinet offers a range of what it calls 'anti-virus firewalls' for all markets, from the home user to the large enterprise and carrier-class service provider.

Symantec Web Security is a product specifically designed to monitor the content of HTTP, HTTPS and FTP traffic. It takes the form of a proxy server that sits behind your firewall; with most firewalls it will operate transparently, but you have the bonus of integration with Check Point's FireWall-1.

There is another aspect of security that is often overlooked in the rush to install firewalls, anti-virus software and email management systems, and yet it is possibly the oldest aspect of them all. Many people bemoan the days when they could leave their doors unlocked and not worry - and that was because there was a large degree of trust in the community. Exactly the same is true of many of the new business practices that the internet has made possible. Whereas a deal might once have been sealed with a handshake, over the impersonal internet that isn't possible. Or is it? One company that has long believed that it is, and has become the market leader in asserting it through its technologies, is RSA.

RSA Keon Core PKI Product Suite is a set of powerful applications which will allow you to construct a complete public key infrastructure (PKI) to allow trusted communication over the internet. After installation you will have the Keon CA (certificate authority) and the Keon RA (registration authority) applications present on your machine. The former issues digital certificates, while the latter processes applications for the certificates. You will also be able to generate public and private keys for encryption and decryption.

According to the latest Yankee Group 2004 Enterprise Security Services survey of US enterprises, firewalls and antivirus are the two most highly valued security technologies. The poll also found that Symantec, Cisco and Network Associates (which has since changed its trading name to McAfee) rank as the three most trusted security product vendors.
