A couple of weeks ago, I posted a message looking for a firewall
comparison chart. I got a large number of replies - thanks
to everyone, sorry I couldn't reply individually. I also got a large
number of requests to pass the information on. Sorry its
taken so long - I've been rather busy lately.
Out of all the answers I got, the same 2 kept croping up again
and again.....and here they are
cheers

The more complete chart I've seen is in the following ref.
George R. Kurtz & David Roath. "Shopping for Firewalls",
in Infosecurity News, MIS Institute Press, 1995.
[info: (508) 879-9792].
Very complete chart. Includes "Product type", "proxies supported",
"authentication supported", "authentication provided", "security
features", "auditing features", "administration features", and
"pricing and support". All the above categories are cut in 4-5
columns. There are 26 products/suppliers listed.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Network Computing (just arrived today) has a review of 6 firewall
products. I haven't read it yet, I don't know which ones they are
evaluating. It's a feature article though.
[ This message has been sent to the firewalls list. If you reply to
this message to the list, please do not CC me on the reply. I subscribe
to the list and will read it there ]
