RE: [FW1] URL Filters
Title: URL Filters
Personally from what I have seen with ours, I would not go with a CVP
solution that uses Firewall-1. Firewall-1 screams at lower layer filtering with
respect to networks, hosts and overall services. But when it digs into URL's,
web access slows. I have tried out XSTOP's database before and it matches
websense as far as I could tell. And now, XSTOP makes filter
appliances they claim that don't drop throughput of your web surfers
and don't require any network changes. If I could personally change off of CVP
filtering, I would get one of these appliances in on a trial basis to look
at.
I am trying to select a URL Filtering package for our FW. Any
suggestions or comments on packages. I saw some bashing about Websense and
problems people were having with that package. Any other comments about that
or other packages??
Thanks,
John Neville
