Joel did a good job in that article, especially taking into consideration the differences on every product does its "application layer inspection". At the same time, I don't think Joel took into consideration that some of the products evaluated in his article (such as Check Point) leverages a subscription-based signature update service to stay on top of the latest "popular" threats. Since you are looking at Check Point in this case. Do refer to the following URL on Check Point's official public info in this particular aspect: http://www.checkpoint.com/products/technologies/ai.html Cheers, Chris -----Original Message----- From: firewall-wizards-admin () honor icsalabs com [mailto:firewall-wizards-admin () honor icsalabs com] On Behalf Of Norman Zhang Sent: June 21, 2004 2:16 PM To: firewall-wizards () honor icsalabs com Subject: [fw-wiz] Re: Firewalls Compared kashif wrote:

has anybody done anything similar or could point out "what aspects" do we need to compare.
Back in March 2004, Information Security Magazine published some comparisons between the two. Perhaps the following URL is helpful to you. http://infosecuritymag.techtarget.com/ss/0,295796,sid6_iss346_art662,00.html HTH, Norman _______________________________________________ firewall-wizards mailing list firewall-wizards () honor icsalabs com http://honor.icsalabs.com/mailman/listinfo/firewall-wizards _______________________________________________ firewall-wizards mailing list firewall-wizards () honor icsalabs com http://honor.icsalabs.com/mailman/listinfo/firewall-wizards
