FIREWALL SERVICE
ConnectSouth Manages the Technology
The ConnectSouth Managed Firewall service is provided by a network-based solution. This means that our experienced technicians manage all phases of your firewall protection - installation, configuration, upgrades, and support. Therefore, you never incur a charge for site visits, software installations, upgrades, or even maintenance. We keep up with the ever-changing technology, so you can keep up with your business.

How does ConnectSouth do it?
ConnectSouth Selects ICSA Certified Nortel Network Equipment with Stateful Firewall Technology

ConnectSouth's Firewall Service is provided on the ICSA Certified Nortel platform. This platform has been tested by the third-party ICSA organization. The tests performed on the Nortel platform are not a review of design documents. Rather, they are an operational test to evaluate proper functionality and deny access to computer systems by unauthorized users. This certification is an on-going process not evaluated by just one performance test.

The ConnectSouth Firewall platform utilizes stateful firewall technology. This technology carefully inspects the lead packets of a conversation. A conversation refers to multiple packets all relating to one another in a continuous flow. Only after the characteristics of the first few packets are identified from a valid source does the firewall permit all other packets of that conversation to pass. Stateful firewall technology provides security with a quick response but does not decrease the performance of your Internet connection.
