3Com Embedded Firewall Architecture for E-Business: Stronger Security for Open Networks

Overview B2B trends in partnering are forcing one to take another look at the way one implements and manage firewalls. 3Com Embedded Firewalls represent a second-generation hardware firewall that addresses the existing insider threat and the emerging requirements for e-business. 3Com Embedded Firewall combines rock solid policy enforcement with centralized management and auditing. The 3Com Embedded Firewall architecture is both non-bypass-able and extremely tamper resistant. These characteristics make it ideal for enforcing access control and detecting intrusions in a distributed environment.
