Re: One computer two different networks - deploy a proxy

[Santiago Barahona <sant-bar () dsv su se>]

Hi all,

... so my colleagues, others and I, we tried to find a good solution  
(thanks to all of you who gave me good ideas)... we also had a  
demonstration from Tenix of their Data Diode, which was very  
impressive, their product seems to work very well (they also claim  
the hardware is CC - EAL6 !!).

At the end, and after a "fast-track risk re-assessment"... if that  
ever exists... we decided to leave our isolated network as is. We  
will now see how we can enhance the services we already provide to  
those guys in via our Terminal Servers.

Just to let you mates know.
Thank you all who took some time to give suggestions.

cheers,

santiago

How about this option? We deploy it all the time.

You may mix and match how you would like your firewalls.

Configure the proxy to be the ONLY way out of your secure network.  
Enable proxy authentication so only the users that are permitted out  
may get out. This is fast and secure.

Hi all,

(First of all I want to apologise if I am misplacing this question,  
if so
I'd appreciate if anyone could point me to the right direction)

So here is the situation:

We have about 250 computers that are isolated in a high-security  
network, we
want to give internet access to those computer users without  
compromising
the secured network...of course our first thought is to buy 250  
computers so
the users can switch between computers (one for the secure network,  
one for
internet)... but that might not be most practical solution...

Does anyone know about other products or techniques on how to accomplish
this??

thanks!
