Microsoft Forefront Threat Management Gateway Description

Microsoft Forefront Threat Management Gateway was designed to be a comprehensive secure Web gateway that helps protect Web-using employees from threats on the Web with an enterprise-class Web proxy and anti-malware functionality. Forefront TMG helps ensure that encrypted Web sessions (SSL) are protected from threats. It also delivers simple, unified perimeter security to protect networks from attack by providing an integrated application and network-layer firewall, intrusion prevention, VPN connectivity, and management of e-mail security. It enables you to easily maximize existing information technology (IT) investments by improving network security and performance. The newly added protection technologies will help you inspect e-mail traffic for spam and malware and enforce content policy compliance in your organization. Furthermore, Forefront TMG protects the organization from zero-day-attacks, and inspects outbound HTTP and HTTPS traffic to improve Internet security for your organization. Forefront TMG Beta 2 can help you: • Protect users from Web browsing threats (Secure Web Gateway)• Control network Access at the edge (Firewall)• Protect users from e-mail threats (E-mail Protection)• Protect desktops and servers from intrusion attempts (Network Inspection System, Security Assessment Sharing)• Enable users to remotely access corporate resources (VPN, Secure Web Publishing)• Simplify management and deployment• Integrate with the Forefront Security Suite (codename Stirling) to provide a unified security solution for protecting all of the assets in your organizationNote: Connecting Forefront TMG to a Stirling Server is supported only with the public Beta 2 of Forefront Codenamed Stirling Requirements: · A computer with a 64-bit processor. · 2 gigabytes (GB) or more of memory · 2.5 GB of available hard disk space. This is exclusive of hard disk space that you want to use for caching or for temporarily storing files during malware inspection. · One network adapter that is compatible with the computer's operating system, for communication with the Internal network. · An additional network adapter for each network connected to the Forefront TMG server. · One local hard disk partition that is formatted with the NTFS file system. What's New in This Release: · Web proxy port changes · If you change the Web proxy port on the LocalHost, URL filtering will no longer work. To avoid this problem, after you change the Web proxy port on the LocalHost, restart the Firewall service. · URL category override If you create a URL category override using a wildcard character in this format: · *.contoso.com · it will work for http://a.contoso.com and http://b.contoso.com, but not for http://contoso.com. To avoid this issue, create a specific override for contoso.com, in addition to *.contoso.com. · URL database status · At the time of this release, the URL database content is being populated. As this process continues, URL filtering effectiveness will increase. · Microsoft Reputation Service · The URL Filtering feature depends upon the Microsoft Reputation (MRS), which is currently a Beta service. In the unlikely event that the service fails, URL categorization will not work.
