Fred,
Thanks for that... my guy is likely going to drool all over the cdw site,
but then again.. it's US$ and US based, so not as much use to us Canucks.
I did check out those 2 FW's out, but they are more SOHO, and most of our
clients are right in between - in that nasty grey area - where they don't
have an in-house system admin... they have our company to do all that for
them.. and they are big enough and have information that needs to be
protected. But they also don't have the budget to be spending $10,000.00
just to get started on handling their security issues.
We currently use ConSeal's professional version and find that it more than
fulfills our and our clients needs, but it is good policy to check around
and see what other products are out there, and what people in the industry
think of them.
(And it helped me in my reseach for that "report", so I was doing
double-duty with it, by checking out the other products in our realm.)
Cheers.. (damn it's hard to type with a cat sitting 1/2 on your lap, 1/2
on your keyboard :)
