RE: [cobalt-security] Hardware/Software firewall

Have a look at the WatchGuard range (www.watchguard.com).  We're even using
it to protect our Qube3.  I would say the prices are fairly reasonable for
the product.

Its either something like a WatchGuard appliance or a pc running something
RedHat with firewall installed.

Thats about the best options I can think of.

Subject: [cobalt-security] Hardware/Software firewall


Since the Security mailing list is possibly going to end soon, can anyone
advise me on a good inexpensive hardware firewall for the Raq550, or
enlighten me as to the advantages of using one of the various security
packages such as Michael and Zeffie offer. Anyone have any experience with
the Hotbrick or Cisco Pix firewall routers?

I hate to throw in the towel on my Cobalts (I've been using them for about 6
years now), but a recent hacker attack and the lateness of patches has me
losing sleep these days.

Any information on affordable proven security products would be helpful.
