ASA
The Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) software is a proven and widely used security solution. The well-known firewall from Cisco enables IT managers or other users within their own company network or data center to securely and reliably access data and network resources. The ASA firewall based on Linux forms the core operating system of the whole Cisco ASA family. Nevertheless, the ASA software can also be integrated into other security technologies and thus offers optimal protection against threats and attacks. The product line of the Cisco Adaptive Security Appliances comprises different series, one of which is the ASA 5500 series.
