Gateway certification
A gateway is a secure connection between two networks, usually where one is a public network such as the internet. It will usually comprise a number of components, including a firewall host, proxy servers, routers, email hosts, etc.
Gateway Audit Guide
The Gateway Audit Guide assists Australian government agencies and service providers to pursue certification (or re-certification).
It provides guidance and ideas to consider in secure gateway design, development and management, and may be used as a reference for independent verification of any gateway.
