---------- Forwarded Message ---------- Subject: Security at the Network Edge: A Distributed Firewall Architecture Date: Mon, 23 Jul 2001 18:58:20 -0600 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Security at the Network Edge: A Distributed Firewall Architecture The Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers, Inc. (the "IEEE"). Presented at the DARPA Information Survivability Conference II, June 12-14, in Anaheim, CA. This paper introduces Network Edge Security, a new distributed firewall architecture designed to counter the insider threat, which is undeterred by existing firewall implementations. Network Edge Security also addresses the security challenges of emerging technology trends like mobile computing, business-to-business computing and virtual private networks (VPNs). We describe the architecture and the rationale for its design; then we illustrate its application. http://www.securecomputing.com/pdf/dist_firewall_arch.pdf -- Elias Levy SecurityFocus.com http://www.securityfocus.com/ Si vis pacem, para bellum ------------------------------------------------------- -- Douglas J.
