Re: What is the Best Firewall Between Norton & ZoneAlarm

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Ask the CEO how much productivity ($) would be lost if the server etc. were
compromised? A Sonicwall or ISA 2004 will then look relatively cheap.

The SonivWall is a bit pricey...

I don't think the CEO will go for that... Any other suggestions?

Hello,

The company I work for is going to be getting a Dedicated T1 line next
week... our current router has a built-in firewall that was
preconfigured...

I am wondering what would be the best firewall program to use w/ SBS
2003 Standard Edition... I know that ISA 2004 comes w/ the Premium
edition, but I'm not sure about the standard edition...

Right now, the two choices are ZoneAlarm Pro, and Norton Firewall
2006... Unless someone else can suggest something that would be more
beneficial??

Thanks in advance
Jeremy

None of these. Theydon't belong on your server - and I frankly don't like
them on workstations, either.

You don't get ISA with Standard.

I suggest you get a better firewall than whatever your ISP is putting in
the
router (it's probably just NAT). I personally like SonicWALL - good bang
for
the buck. Check out the TZ170 series.....
