Since the term 'Firewall' may be taken from construction/automotive
terms as a barrier to protect from fire rather than break-ins (of the
theft variety) Fire-whatever is probably inappropriate.
Focusing on the security/barrier/hard shell around the chewy center/
perimeter defense motif, I submit the following:
sentry
sentinel
watchman (spare the gender variations)
and the already submitted:
gatekeeper (Tormeister)
fantasy enthusiasts (or goats) may prefer:
Troll
Others:
Beefeater (guard at the Tower of London)
ranger (as in forest - atop a tower looking for fires)
Would someone please summarize before this thread
rivals Decembers 'Timing Attacks' :-)
my $0.07 worth.
