Separate
net (using Firewall in a box)
It is possible
to open a new ADSL connection to a "Firewall
in a box" server using an extra global IP
address.
The Remote
Server application is a TCP/IP based server using
a configurable TCP/IP port number (default port
number is 2000).
The firewall
should be configured to only allow access to the
ip-adresses using the port number 2000. The ip
adress scheme selected for the firewall should be
different than the companys normal numbering
scheme, since access to the numbering scheme can
give hackers a head start.
This solution
gives a very high level of certainty that no
misuse of the company network can be done .
Note that the
is no protection against users that have a Remote
client application.
