RE: Most secure small home office firewall under $700

If you are interested in an open source solution, check out SmoothWall
Express at http://www.smoothwall.org/

Converts an inexpensive PC that you may already have sitting around into a
very stable firewall.  Have been using it for over a year on my home setup.

 

If you need corp style of support, they do have a corporate version for
around $320 at http://www.smoothwall.net/

Subject: Most secure small home office firewall under $700

 

Can someone let me know what company makes the most secure and strong small
office firewall. 

Sonicwall looks good for about $500 but I know there are others.

It would be even better if the interface was easier to use.

 

 

I presently have a Sonicwall in one office and it works great but I am not
sure about how secure they are. I need strong securtity to protect a machine
that is running IIS. IIS is running a service for my business. I need to
secure the system from attack.

 

Any suggestions????
