I don't know that we have much data to protect (or target!) but what does the hive-mind here think about it? A firewall is generally good to have; would this one suit us?
All computing resources should be protected, there's no excuse for zero protection nowadays.
Afraid, Kernel Sanders? ;-) Actually it is this 'it's not important' attitude that causes way too much problems for those work with such things. I'll stop now as this could be a very long rant.
You've clearly not heard the 1U screamers I'm talking about -- it's a high pitched, extremely annoying and LOUD sound. It penetrated the 4 wythe brick walls that separated our server room from the storage area in front of it. You'll know something is going on, but you won't want to be anywhere around it!
How about 26 Cisco 7600's fully loaded and dual power supplies? Martin donated a 6500 (same as the 7600 basically) that could handle your switching/routing needs (and then some).
