As we first reported last month, Microsoft was gearing up for the Internet Security & Acceleration Server 2004 beta release. Since then Beta 2 of Codename 'Stingray' has been sent to a few select groups.
What is Microsoft ISA Server 2004?
ISA Server 2004 is Microsoft Corp.'s next-generation enterprise firewall, virtual private network (VPN), and Web cache solution. ISA Server 2004 takes application-layer filtering, simplified management integration, and fast Web access to new levels, making it a "must consider" for any organization looking to augment its existing security infrastructure.
What's new in Microsoft ISA Server 2004?
Microsoft ISA Server 2004 builds on an updated architecture that has been specifically designed to combat the latest types of Internet attacks and worms with features such as signature blocking. It also offers a new, simplified user interface that can help customers avoid firewall misconfiguration—a common cause of network security breaches. In addition, ISA Server 2004 includes a greatly expanded array of tools and other features for enabling and securing VPN access to corporate networks.
As stated above there are numerous additions to ISA Server 2004, most recognizably the new user interface, which will be showcased below in screenshots. Some of the new features and functions will also be shown.
