Hi I am new to this list and hoping for some positive feedback on the following scenario. I am trying to implement a E-Commerce infrastucture currently which has the following structure : Internet <-->perimeter firewall<-->Amber Zone<-->Internal network. There is a WEB server in the Amber zone needs connection to a Sybase Server using Sybase Openclient to do queries on the DB(WEB server INITIATING connection to the Sybase server). If this Sybase Server was to be in the INTERNAL network what sort of security implications does this pose. I will make sure the security on the DB server is tightened and the server is hardened but besides doing this, what other secure ways are there of doing this. I have read a lot of literature on firewalls and so far gathered that no INITIAL connection should be accepted from Amber Zone hosts to INTERNAL Network Thanks in advance N ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com
