What is the Symantec Client Firewall?
The Symantec Client Firewall is one implementation of a desktop firewall. Symantec sells both a PC and Mac desktop firewall. There are many other commercial desktop firewall products such as Zone Alarm, Black ICE, Kerio and the Windows firewall which is included with Windows XP. We purchased the Symantec Client Firewall product by licensing Symantec Cleint Security suite for the PC and Macintosh. Firewall clients are managed using the same framework (Symantec System Console) as the Symantec AntiVirus Corporate Edition clients.
