Frontier Airlines chose Secure Firewall

USA. The corporate security provider for ports of entry announced that its Secure Firewall system was chosen by Frontier Airlines, of Denver, Colorado. The selection of the system was due to the need for a company-wide solution to improve safety and manageability, while providing sufficient scalability to keep pace with the airline's growth. Secure Firewall exceeded Frontier Airlines' requirements for simplified security management, with the unified approach to threat management, with prevention and detection, antivirus, antispyware, antispam, URL filtering and encrypted application scanning, as well as firewall capability to inspect traffic at the application layer to block attacks that enter through applications such as SQL. "Airline operations are increasingly tied to core IT systems and networks. Firewalls are essential to ensure the security and continuity of these systems. Secure Firewall is the only firewall that hasn't had a CERT report or emergency patch in its history," said Ken Rutsky, vice president of product marketing for Secure Computing.
