the
main
concern
of
network
administrators
as

of
today's
threats
are
embedded
in
the
content

the
data
exchanged
between
systems
and
users.

order
to
protect
against
threats
a
group
of
tools
are
needed
to
provide
filtering
capabilities
against
spam
and
virus
mail. Intrusion

&
Prevention

and
firewall
functions
create
a defense
against hackers
and
blaster
attacks
from
Internet
or
Intranet.
