Abstract

This Uganda Standard provides an overview of different techniques of security gateways, of components and of different types of security gateway architectures. It also provides guidelines for the selection and configuration of security gateways. Although Personal Firewalls make use of similar techniques, they are outside the scope of this standard because they do not serve as security gateways. The intended audiences for this standard are technical and managerial personnel, e.g. IT managers, system administrators, network administrators and IT security personnel. It provides guidance in helping the user choose the right type of architecture for a security gateway which best meets their security requirements. This standard was PUBLISHED on 2012-12-18
