We use eSafe Gateway here and it's a good product. The white paper says: "Our Nitro Inspection technology sends file packets in parallel, allowing the requesting client and the Content Inspector to receive the file at the same time, thereby preventing the problems associated with proxy methods. As soon as last packet is received by eSafe Gateway, it only holds the packet until the Content Inspector completes inspection. Once the CI scans and approves the file, the final packet is forwarded to the requesting client. In the event that the file contains a content threat, eSafe Gateway prevents that final packet from completing its journey to the requesting client and generates one or more administrator configurable alert messages". That's all. We could observe a little degradation when too many clients are browsing on the web, but it's better than nothing to scan threat files, Java applets, ActiveX, etc. Regards, Omar Pinheiro |--------+----------------------------------------------> | | Ed Davidson <[email protected]>| | | Enviado Por: Mailing list for | | | discussion of Firewall-1 | | | <[email protected]| | | point.com> | | | | | | | | | 26/12/2001 12:20 | | | Responder a Mailing list for | | | discussion of Firewall-1 | | | | |--------+----------------------------------------------> >---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | | | Para: [email protected] | | cc: | | Assunto: Re: [FW-1] Anti-Virus Solution | >---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| To set the record straight, the sales guy at eSafe is the one who told me how this product works -- IE that it acts as a "router" or "gateway". You configure the server to route IP traffic, configure your network to route through the server, and install eSafe Gateway to run ontop of that. The sale broshure that I have for the product states "Without utilizing proxy or caching" "target market...ISPs,...ASPs," On a side note - www.esafe.com doesn't seem to be up at the moment.

It did work well as an e-mail anti-virus system for one of my clints. ********************************** Roman Zeltser, @National Computer Center, RSIS & DNE -----Original Message----- From: Eduardo Eirós Valle [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, December 20, 2001 2:39 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [FW-1] Anti-Virus Solution Hi Ed, Wednesday, December 19, 2001, 10:08:27 PM, escribió: ED> I am looking at E-Safe Gateway from Aladdin, which is a standalone product you ED> place on NT 4.0 or Linux between your router and your firewall -- it acts ED> as a router, scanning all SMTP/HTTP/FTP traffic for viruses, vandels, ED> or bad scripts.
