Firewall

There are excellent software and hardware solutions available for protecting a business’s connections to outside networks. This category of security of hardware and software is often referred to as the corporate firewall. These edge security solutions (to use Microsoft terminology) do far more with respect to security than just filter traffic. They also provide patch management across the network, management of anti-virus and other code blocking software, management of VPNs and other remote communications, and much more. Having a good edge security solution is clearly a cornerstone for almost any well conceived security plan.

Microsoft, Cisco, SonicWall, Symantec, Computer Associates and hundreds of other companies have solid offerings in this space. Microsoft, for example, has their Forefront Client Security, Server Security, and Edge Security and Access products. The following is a list of the features these types of applications typically perform:

• Update Client Computer Signature Files.
• Use Policies to Manage Client Computers.
• Alerting, Reporting, and Monitoring of Client Computers.
• E-mail based Workflow.
• Server Virus Protection.
• Secure Remote Access.
• Branch Office Security.
• Full Internet Access Protection.
• Added Protection for Applications Like SharePoint that Have Regular Remote access.
• All done centrally from one management console.
