Security has moved into the spotlight as one of the most
critical aspects to network design. There is no single
product or solution to secure a network, and every client
requires a different level of security.
ESI supports many security products, but we have established
a partnership with WatchGuard Technologies. WatchGuard
offers powerful, reliable and easy-to-use firewall appliances,
VPN tools, and server security tools that work together
and scale from very small networks to large enterprises.
WatchGuard provides excellent technical support, too,
an area sorely lacking in many other security-oriented
companies.
The WatchGuard
line of firewall products offers a tremendous balance
of power and simplicity. Scalable from home offices/small
satellite offices (Firebox® Soho) to large businesses
(Firebox® 4500), this line offers very high security
in a very easy to use appliance.
The Firebox® line includes all the features expected
in a modern firewall — service proxying and filtering,
static and dynamic NAT, content blocking, stateful packet
inspection, extensive monitoring and logging tools,
support for private and public networks and a demilitarized
zone (DMZ), and more. In addition, it offers VPN support
for both PPTP and IPSec tunnels for branch offices and
remote users.

WatchGuard’s new family of products extends the power of
WatchGuard’s products to the enterprise. Capable
of supporting as many as 20,000 concurrent VPN connections
over multiple T3 or OC3 connections (V100 model), Vclass
will support even the largest enterprise customer requirements.
For details on the Vclass line, see www.watchguard.com/

It seems that every week news of another hack reaches
the press. Defacing public websites — or worse,
changing substantive content — can harm businesses
and cause major disruptions. Other servers are vulnerable
to manipulation as well, from internal and outside sources.
WatchGuard’s ™
and
products prevent such problems. Operating as a kernel
filter driver, no user can override
settings — not even a local or system administrator.
With these products, files, directories and the system
registry can be locked down completely.
