3Com embedded firewall is a hardware-based, distributed firewall solution embedded in to PC and PCI card hardware, with fast ethernet connectivity. It allows IT managers to deploy a company-wide client security scheme (a capability particularly valuable in security conscious industries -such as government, finance, healthcare, and education- where digital asset protection is paramount).

3Com security solution offers an increased measure of protection against internal threats with tamper-resistant security at the client and manageable policy enforcement. The unique combination of firewall hardware and centralised policy management software deters attacks and intrusions from both inside and outside the perimeter of the network in desktop, server and notebook PC. It augments wiring closet security and perimeter firewalls to deliver 'defense-in-depth' network security.

The new 3Com firewall cards allow network managers to extend embedded firewall protection to remote users connecting to the corporate network via a VPN broadband connection. The newly announced enhanced security products also automatically detect whether a user is connecting from inside or outside the LAN's physical perimeter and apply the appropriate security policies for that location. Both versions of 3Com firewall PC cards ship with the necessary client license, making the solution even easier to deploy and manage.

In conjunction with the firewall PC card launch, the desktop and server embedded firewall products are now bundled with the client license. In addition, the 3Com embedded firewall policy server automatically detects the presence of new hardware for easy additions or changes to policy configurations.
