The NIST Network Security Team uses strategically placed Check Point firewalls to provide network security protection for both NIST campuses. All firewalls are centrally managed with Check Point firewall management appliances located at each site. Specifically, this procurement is to replace the pair of NIST Gaithersburg main firewall appliances (over 5 years old) with 13800 Next Generation High Performance firewall appliances; to replace at least three pairs of internal Gaithersburg firewalls (over 5 years old) with a single pair of 41000 Security Gateway Chassis 20 Core firewall appliances; to replace the current firewall management appliances (over 5 years old) with Smart-1 3050 appliances (2 for Gaithersburg and 1 for Boulder) to handle load increases anticipated as bandwidth increases and cloud services expand. Also included in this procurement are software licenses for testing firewall functionality within virtualization systems such as VMware, additional software blades to add security functionality to Internet-facing firewalls (Anti-Bot, URL Filtering and Application Control), and Premium Support & Maintenance.
