ISA...
Another bug filled software introduced by Microsoft with swiss cheese like
security holes.

Almost better off not having a firewall at all. It is cheaper and less admin
effort.
Talking about oxymorons? Microsoft Firewall is just as bad as Jumbo Shrimp.


I am not suggesting having no firewall. Just don't waste any money on ISA.
That is my 2 cents.
Spend a little more and get something good.

That sounds like some executive in higher education (possible oxymoron
there) doesn't know his firewalls from content filters from a hole in the
ground.  There are countless documents out there which describe the basic
security stuff every network has to have.  Chief on the list (besides a good
admin) is a good firewall.  Start on Microsoft's site if you can't find
anything else.  For anything above the smallest networks, ISA server gets
decent reviews as a firewall.

  That's like saying "Yah, I know the building's on fire, but I have no
control over that now."

  If you don't have a firewall, you have a *serious problem*.  Your whole
network is just begging to be hacked.  Fix it.
