• Microsoft ISA Server 2006 and the newer Forefront Threat Management Gateway are discontinued software platforms that contain an application-layer firewall able to protect networks from outside and internal attacks. Both platforms perform deep inspection of network protocols to uncover exploits that frequently evaded traditional firewalls. ISA Server 2006 was superseded by Forefront Threat Management Gateway, which was based on ISA Server's architecture while providing a number of enhanced capabilities. Forefront TMG has in turn been discontinued by Microsoft, and the gateway security functions provided by the product are now typically handled by purpose-built hardware devices from companies that include Cisco, Check Point, Fortinet, Juniper, and WatchGuard. (See ASA 5500-X Firewall with Firepower Services integration and management.)
