N2H2 is generally considered to be one of the best content/URL filtering products on the market, and looking at in this group test, it is easy to see why.

This is a flexible, robust, very scalable and multi-purpose wireless security solution. It provides rogue detection, troubleshooting, vulnerability assessment, intrusion detection, performance management and usage accounting. It has a standard Windows GUI with an open source Firebird database that includes a secure, password-protected interface, and can be easily configured both for a small business or a large enterprise.

The Sybari Antigen suite consists of components that cover Exchange, SharePoint and Domino, the first of which was submitted for this Group Test. The software includes the Central and Quarantine Managers and Job Scheduler.

The Entercept system, now acquired by Network Associat-es, has in its latest version bought a major revision to how software runs in the enterprise.

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.

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.

The Symantec Gateway Security product combines firewall, content filtering and intrusion detection in one rack-mounted system that is 1U high. The content filtering includes anti-virus and anti-spam, plus the blocking of inappropriate content and non work-related surfing. The firewall has all the usual features you would expect from a modern firewall: stateful inspection, packet filtering, NAT, IPsec VPN and full inspection application proxies.

If you are looking for a little more than simple content filtering, it is worth taking a look at WebWasher. Aimed at the medium to large business, it provides extensive content filtering and a number of other valuable features.

This product concentrates on hard disk data encryption. However , it does include a VPN client integration for IPCrytor VPN gateways, which is a remote access solution. Encryption may be in relation to your own local hard drive, or a specific directory or folder on the corporate LAN.

RealSecure 7.0 is the result of the integration between RealSecure and the BlackICE NIDS sensor technology. It runs on a dedicated machine and acts as a NIPS sensor to monitor a network segment, looking for intrusions or suspicious activity. If an intrusion is suspected, it can respond by recording details of the event. It can notify the network administrator, reconfigure the firewall, or terminate the event.

StealthWatch employs a completely different approach to traditional IDS, based on signature recognition. Instead of looking for signatures, it 'learns' what kind of activity is normal on your network and looks for abnormal events. Behavior-based IDS has some advantages over signature-based IDS, because less processing power is required and previously unknown attacks can be detected.

This software network-based IDS product requires a dedicated machine running Solaris 8 on either Sun SPARC or Intel hardware. The hardware specification depends on the amount of traffic to be monitored, and gigabit monitoring interfaces are supported. We were supplied with a pre-installed system running on a Dell PowerEdge rack-mounted server - however, customers would have to provide their own hardware; prices quoted are for software only.

Unique in this test, the iPrism is actually an appliance. Although these tend to be more expensive than software-only products, they usually have the advantage of a fairly solid configuration since they are factory-build.

Unlike the other products in this Group Test Web Inspector is neither system policy management or email policy management, but in fact an internet compliance tool that uses policy to set its users' boundaries. Suitable as a single installation for the smaller enterprise, this solution easily scales up to a distributed deployment over a large network.

Policy starts with access control, ensuring that users only have the rights assigned by the administrator in line with your corporate policy. Whether you choose to assign the same rights across the network or drill down your policy into user groups, sites, or individual users or workstations, is your choice. Policies can be created to suit your needs and ensure that only the web pages that your company deems necessary are viewed within work hours, allowing for the organization to permit safe surfing on non-business sites at stipulated times.

Another policy enforcement product, but with some added features that really give it some teeth, is iomart's NetIntelligence. As well as monitoring URL requests, it also looks at the network as a whole (hardware, software and all files) and can instantly detect whether any unauthorized changes have been made, or whether any prohibited content is suddenly present.

Security has been the mainstay of SurfControl's business for quite some time, so it is no surprise to see an email security solution. A policy-based application, SurfControl E-mail Filter is actually an SMTP host through which all mail is diverted.

Installation is amazingly simple. It's just a matter of entering the required information into a few windows and telling the product where it sits in relation to the email server. For reasons of economy, it can be installed on the same machine as the mail server, but for reasons of reliability this isn't recommended.

Security researchers hit out at database vendor Oracle by releasing details of workarounds for six security vulnerabilities that remain unpatched.

The software has three components, a server, an administration console and the client software installed on the systems to be managed. The server requires Microsoft SQL Server; the administration console will run on Windows NT 4.0 and above, and can be on the same system as the database if required.

In the Gateway Security product, Symantec has come up with a range of gateway appliances, each of which combines firewall, anti-virus, virtual private network (VPN), content filtering and intrusion detection in one rack-mounted system that is 1U high.

This solution provides a network-based IDS, real-time session monitoring and internet/email content blocking. eTrust Intrusion Detection can be installed in standalone mode, or it can be distributed on separate machines. The intrusion detection program installs as a service under Windows NT/2000. As usual, the monitoring interface is a NIC in promiscuous mode, and therefore the presence of the IDS is concealed from the attacker.
