Is your network secure?

Intrusion can cause havok on a network system. Malicious hackers can easily destory data and cause untold lost of work. The benefits are security and peice of mind.
 
Firewall Implementation
 
A firewall system consist of three segments, the internal LAN, DMZ, and Internet. Depending on your particular network setup and access needs a Prometheum firewall expert will determine the most secure design.
 
 

The network setup shown above gives an ideal setup of the firewall and it's various servers and applications. The goal is to prevent any initiations from the external world to be able to reach applications or servers from the inside LAN.

 
Hardware or software based firewall?
 

"There are two main types of security and remote access options available today: software and hardware. Software based firewalls running a computer or server have inherent problems.

  • A general-purpose computer's operating system isn't designed with bulletproof security in mind. Configuring computer-based firewall gateways require that you harden the operating system. This means ensuring the operating system always has the latest security patches to fix new security flaws.
  • The complexity of current software based firewall and VPN products have been problematic; particularly ease of use and management. Hardware based firewall solutions, typically embodied in security appliances, protects the entire network. A security appliance is a solid-state platform with a powerful onboard processor to handle the demands of firewall processing. Because security appliances protect the network at the Internet gateway, they provide a platform for seamless local or remote management of all security and remote access services."
