[AusNOG] Application Firewall Recommendations

[Burt Mascareigne]

Throwing my 0.02c  I like SOPHOS,  not a full WAF,  but,  it does so much more as well.  It’s WAF is nice and simple,  but,  IMHO,  F5 is better, but WAY more expensive.

You can try SOPHOS for free,  as it’s a VM,  if you’re OK with that,  I personally like VMs,  being more scalable and a good DRS

Hi Ed,
              If as others have say, you decide to look at WAF and reverse proxies, I would suggest you to look at the following vendors;

              A10 Networks
              Citrix
              F5
Imperva
Radware

Narrow it down to 2 or 3 and do a PoC (most If not all of us will be able to offer hardware appliances or VM’s)

I can help in getting anything you may need from the A10 (www.a10networks.com<http://www.a10networks.com>) side, just let me know.

Thank you,

Michael A Schipp

Hi people,

Just a simple question, but with a not so simple answer.

We manage considerable clients with ‘cloud’ based servers within Telstra’s utility hosting.
We used to use TMG as a firewall / gateway / security for clients who requested these features,  but this is no longer possible.

I need recommendations on application based (non VM) firewalls which can be installed on server 08 / 12 and capable of the same feature set as TMG. Not as easy to find now..

So, I ask my esteemed peers for words of wisdom.
Well, words, anyway.

Kind regards,
Ed Hallett
