I want to add that what you mention is tru, SonicWALL also has the 8 points
you mention and also ANTISPYWARE + WIRELESS SECURITY + PERSONAL FIREWALL +
...
What I meant about IPS signatures was not referred to DOS attacks that are
not counted in the IPS signatures.
If the IPS has more signatures then it is better in signatures related
because that is what it will detect.
SONICWALL has equipments like 5060 that support 3,000 users, now they offer
enterprise products also.

Managing IPS and IDS is not around the amount of signatures the unit has
or not, it's around current active, most prominent not having DOS
signatures for example windows 3.2 or 95 etc.
The benefit for Fortigate is unlimited users based on environment spec
(Spec the unit for the environment)
Gives you
1. Firewall
2. WebContent Filtering
3. Spam Filtering and Management
4. VPN and Client RAS
5. IDP and IPS
6. Antivirus and File Blocking and Management
7. IM and P2P Management and control
8. Deployed in Nat and Transparent mode making easy to deploy in any
environment.
The Sonicwall we deployed agreed was easy manageable and the client
easily adopted to the setup and management of the unit. Growing the unit
in the environment, adding High Availability and enabling all functions
indicated that the Fortigate is a more flexible cost effective and UTM
Solution.
I feel that for SOHO solutions the Sonicwall is a good solution, with
Fortigates Bundle Service model on the SOHO products I feel that a lot
of other vendors are coming a bit short.

Tinus

How many IPS signatures has Fortinet?
SONICWALL has more than 1800 forIPS and IDS, i think SONICWALL has more
capabilities and is very easy.
Please send you comments.

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
