whitepaper F5 FirePass Endpoint Security2008-10-01 F5 Networks
  As SSL VPN technology becomes more mainstream and organizations extend their internal infrastructures to users who are not necessarily employees, endpoint security has become an increasing concern. It is no longer enough to protect assets from an unknown malicious intruder. Organizations need to protect against employees connecting from unpatched home computers or entering sensitive user credentials on a public terminal.

whitepaper SonicWALL Case Study: Unica ICT Networks2008-10-01 SonicWall
  Unica ICT Networks is a special business unit of the Unica Installation Group. The challenge was to afford secure access to the Unica network at temporary sites (such as building sites). The time spent at these sites can vary from a few days to a couple of years. Unica ICT installed a PRO Series Firewall with VPN 2040 at the head office in Zwolle, whilst small TZ 190 firewalls were used at the temporary building sites. Unica ICT also used 3G firewalls seeing as an Internet connection was not always available at the different sites.

whitepaper EAD Technology White Paper2008-09-23 H3C Technologies
  EAD is a solution to network endpoint access control. By cooperation of the security clients, access devices, security policy server, and third-party server, it enhances the active defense ability of network endpoints, effectively controlling the spreading of viruses. This paper provides the mechanism, technical characteristics, and typical applications of the EAD solution. It also says that the current defense systems for viruses support mainly standalone defense, for example, installing anti-virus software and firewall software on personal computers. When a new virus or network attack is detected, network administrators usually need to issue virus alerts or patch upgrade, requesting that all computers on the network be installed with the relevant defense software.

whitepaper SPML: A Visual Approach for Modeling Firewall Configurations2008-09-16 Unoeste - Todos os direitos reservados
  This paper describes a graphical notation for modeling security policy, currently focused on firewalls, named SPML. Using SPML, it is possible to specify graphically the security policy to be implemented by firewalls and to configure firewalls at high level, since the rules can be translated to native configuration. To present the approach proposed, they show how to translate SPML models into firewall configuration.

whitepaper Osmose Protects Its Desktops and Laptops With Check Point Endpoint Security2008-09-04 Check Point Software Technologies
  Osmose was faced with having to support the needs of all the 800 users in their corporate headquarters as well as 200 remote users. The remote users posed a particular challenge in that they would travel frequently and bring their laptops with them, plugging in at various hotels across the country and around the world. Providing their users the connectivity they need without sacrificing security was a challenge for Osmose with their limited IT resources. Everything changed for Osmose with Check Point Endpoint Security. The solution provided them with a single agent for endpoint security that combines firewall, Network Access Control (NAC), program control, antivirus, anti-spyware, data security, and remote access, offering comprehensive protection that is part of Check Point's renowned Unified Security Architecture.

whitepaper The Business Case for Web Application Firewalls2008-09-01 Breach Security
  Web application firewalls offer a variety of business benefits such as rapid application deployment, significant cost savings and increased communication between development and security teams. In addition, they also provide security advantages that complement secure coding initiatives, vulnerability scanning efforts and network IDS/IPS. As a result, a web application firewall should be a critical component of web application security strategy. Breach Security's WebDefend web application firewall supplies one with the proven technology and capabilities one needs to ensure that this piece of security strategy is aligned with business needs.

whitepaper How to Replicate the Fire: HA for Netfilter Based Firewalls2008-08-22 Astaro AG
  With traditional, stateless firewalling (such as ipfwadm, ipchains) there is no need for special High Availability (HA) support in the firewalling subsystem. As long as all packet filtering rules and routing table entries are configured in exactly the same way, one can use any available tool for IP-Address takeover to accomplish the goal of failing over from one node to the other. With Linux 2.4.x netfilter/iptables, the Linux firewalling code moves beyond traditional packet filtering. Netfilter provides a modular connection tracking susbsystem which can be employed for stateful firewalling.

whitepaper Networkstreaming Provides a Worldwide Remote Support Solution for a Tech Support Provider2008-08-20 Bomgar
  Marine Entertainment Systems works in the niche of providing IT services to Superyachts. When a guest aboard a Superyacht in the Mediterranean cannot access their email to conduct an important business meeting, they are often less than enthusiastic to wait while the crew member is walked through the diagnostic process over the phone. Additionally challenging, Marine Entertainment Systems began their evaluation for a possible remote support solution with NetViewer, pcAnywhere, and Radmin. The search ended, however, when the company found NetworkStreaming. NetworkStreaming SupportDesk was the preferred choice, given that it was the only solution with the ability to connect through firewalls and on any level of Internet connectivity, anywhere in the world.

whitepaper Free-Riding, Fairness, and Firewalls in P2P File-Sharing2008-08-04 Delft University of Technology
  Peer-to-peer file-sharing networks depend on peers uploading data to each other. Some peers, called free-riders, will not upload data unless there is an incentive to do so. Algorithms designed to prevent free-riding typically assume that connectivity is not a problem. However, on the Internet, a large fraction of the peers resides behind a firewall or NAT, making them unable to accept incoming connections. This paper proves that it is impossible to prevent free-riding when more than half of the peers are firewalled, and the paper will provide bounds on the sharing ratios (defined as the number of bytes uploaded divided by the number of bytes downloaded) of both firewalled and non-firewalled peers.
