This second edition of the Inside Network Perimeter Security provides practical and comprehensive coverage of designing, deploying, and maintaining network defenses. It discusses perimeter security components, such as firewalls, VPNs, and routers, as well as intrusion detection and prevention systems - and explains how to integrate them into a unified whole to secure real-world networks. Because this book was developed in close coordination with the SANS Institute, it is a valuable supplementary resource for those pursuing the GIAC Certified Firewall Analyst (GCFW) certification.
