If a desktop firewall simply stops a 0-day making svchost phone home
with important information on port 80, it has a good argument for. We
are installing Comodo Pro (very small footprint and free for commercial
use) at our clients:

Hi All,
Asking for opinions. Was informed that we are going to put firewalls on
desktop pc's as well, though there is a firewall at the perimeter of the
network.
One motivation was that with a pentest from the inside we would be more
secure.
Are you doing this as well? Arguments for/against.
Thanks
René
