I have a question. How well do you manage a "maximum possibly secured
network" with respect to restricting internal users from accessing
'banned sites' from the Internet?
Do you use a URL checking/word pattern matching software like SurfWatch/
CyberPatrol/NetNanny over and on top of a local Netscape Proxy Server
and a Checkpoint Firewall?
Or will the Proxy Server and the firewall suffice?
Or is there any other better way of doing it using commericial software
or hardware combination?
