if he [a cracker] succeed he will gain all access to both networks:
Tomas,

I assume from this statement that you are using one triple homed firewall? If so, I'd suggest using two dual homed firewalls which are running different OSes with all publicly routable IPs.assigned to the outer firewall. That way if the outer firewall is broken, the attacker will only have access to the DMZ (assuming the internal firewall is configured such that the same attack won't work on both).

My 2 cents,
-Chris
