About this title

Synopsis

Enter Intranet firewalls: friendly local security guards protecting companies from unauthorized internal access to critical information. Companies are increasingly learning that the money, resources and people-power spent on firewalls are well worth the investment. Protecting industry secrets and top-level communications cannot be overvalued. This text compares and contrasts firewalls offered by such industry giants as Netscape, Microsoft and Sun Microsystems. Each firewall is covered thoroughly, explaining in depth the many tasks firewalls can perform, including; user and client authentication; encryption; traffic logging; traffic limitation (incoming and outgoing); report protection; network access translation. Runs under Windows 3.1 and 95.
