Hi Guys

Fortinet

www.fortinet.net

It is the best I have used ever.

I have worked with ISS, Source Fire, Sonicwall (Firewall), Cisco,
CheckPoint and Tipping Point.

From a UTM perspective Fortinet is great.

Regards
Tinus

I have looked at some of the other UTM appliances, but not in depth.  Is
there one that you would recommend looking at?

Hello everyone,  

  I was wondering if anyone out ther has experience with ISS's
Proventia
product line.  If you are not familiar :


http://www.iss.net/products_services/enterprise_protection/proventia/m_s
eries.php

  What are your thoughts on this particular device?  What about other
similar integrated security solutions?  I know that it might not be
the
best thing to "put all your eggs in one basket", so to speak, by using
an all in one appliance.  However, I have a limited buget, limited
time, ... you all know what I am talking about. The real trouble is I
am handling ALL aspects of computing technology for my company ranging
from software/web developer, sys admin, network admin (yes I do the
cabling too), you get the picture.  Now, I would love to be able to
have the time to have a firewall + IDS + etc... setup on, for
instance,
a properly configured SELinux box (which I still might do BTW), but a
semi-managed solution is very appealing to me time-wise (my time) and
staff-wise (me).  Any help along these lines is greatly appreciated.  

Current usage is :

1) Workstation web access
2) WebDAV server through HTTPS
3) SSH tunneling

Additional future usage :

1) Web application server ASP.NET (to be moved from remote host to
apache with mod_mono)
2) Remote/Mobile office locations


If you need to know more, please let me know.   Thanks everyone,

    Zak
