Not sure I understand Brad... Are you saying there is a risk having more than one web page in the DMZ behind a single firewall? Not sure I'd buy that one in total... Could you explain further?
Not at all. I'm saying I would not my web page behind a firewall that someone else can dictate to. I would not trust that the other companies with web pages are smart enough to: 1) know what holes to ask to have in the firewall; 2) protect their box well enough so that it does not become a source of attacks; 3) that even not counting the firewall, their box would not be a source of attacks. I also would not trust that the security provider does not make mistakes. I'm just more comfortable where my box is isolated from everyone else's. They are responsible for their security and I am responsible for mine and never the twain shall meet. Regards, Brad Van Orden
