Customer Reviews

Good Book

The book covers security principles and applies them to Firewall-1. It has some good tips and shows how the underlying technology does the job. Although the book is difficult to navigate there is some really useful information in there. In a number of places the book corrects the Check Point documentation and gives further insight into the low level configuration that is seriously lacking in the Check Point manuals.

VPN-1/FireWall-1 NG

Interesting Book. There are theory chapters in here that seem just background but the Chapter on CVP, VPN and the installation chapters are better than any other Check Point book I have purchased. The installation chapters cover virtually all operating systems.I also liked the coverage of differences between Feature Pack releases and found the appendixes useful.Overall, I would recommend the book if you are looking to actually use the product in your day job.

Great book

Superb for installing and configuring VPN-1/FireWall-1 NG, contains lots of real-world examples. Covers just about everything you need to know, including content security, remote access VPN, SecureClient and Policy Server. The book is obviously written by techies who use the product extensively.Anyone using VPN-1/FireWall-1 NG should have this book on their shelves.

Awesome Book.

Excellent book. Explains in depth how to build security solutions with VPN-1/FireWall-1 NG and includes FCS, FP1, FP2 and FP3. The authors include diverse scenarios and have obviously extensively used the product. Lot's of useful tips and hints.
