Hi, It's an idea but it may not be practical unless you are trying to stop an specific attack. There are ways through firewalls that don't depend on vendor specific details for example tunnelling through ports already open. If the attacker can tunnel through one , he will tunnel through the other - negating your expensive, administrative burdened 2 firewall solution. Just my opinion. -----Original Message----- From: listbounce () securityfocus com [mailto:listbounce () securityfocus com] On Behalf Of marco cohen Sent: 24 May 2012 05:45 To: security-basics () securityfocus com Subject: 2 firewalls protecting internal network hi all I know that there is a defence in depth idea to implement 2 firewalls, each from different vendor. what you think about it ? is it practical? thanks marco ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Securing Apache Web Server with thawte Digital Certificate In this guide we examine the importance of Apache-SSL and who needs an SSL certificate.
