Hi guys,
OK, here's how it goes. At the small business where I work, we have 7 computers plus a server on a 100 Mb/s Ethernet network, on a domain. The server's running Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition; the workstations are running Windows XP Professional.
We're currently running the Windows firewall on some of the computers, though I'm not sure if it's enabled on all of them. The workstations have AVG free for anti-virus.
We have a Watchguard Firebox Edge X10e hardware firewall, which also acts as the router for the network. But as far as I know, it's also good to run a software firewall.
AVG free might work fine for AV, but commercial use goes against the license agreement. So my question is, what anti-virus and software firewalls should we be running? Does the server need any protection, or is its built-in firewall enough?
Thanks in advance.
Regards
