Thanks for the clear response. I was fairly certain that was the case from other articles, but you cleared it up nicely.<br />

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
I am re-designing a small network (30 users), mostly the Internet facing portion. This will probably involve an ISA 2004 server for outbound proxy and handling remote access to a new Exchange server on the internal network. &nbsp;The ISA server would be dual-nic, with external nic sitting on the DMZ behind a firewall and the other nic internal.<br />
<br />
Part of the test if\sproviding a test of users downloading some files re-directed from their hosting vendor. &nbsp;User is on www site, clicks to download (HTTP) a file, then is redirected to network in question.<br />
<br />
My question is: Can I let this download come from the ISA server or do I need a separate &nbsp;server on the DMZ for security? &nbsp;If the concept proves valid, I would need a separate server for performance, but was not sure it was technically or security necessary. &nbsp;<br />
<br />
Thanks.

Operating system security (OS security) is the process of ensuring OS integrity, confidentiality and availability. OS security refers to specified steps or measures used to protect the OS from threats, viruses, worms, malware or remote hacker intrusions. OS security encompasses all preventive-control techniques, which safeguard any computer assets capable of being stolen, edited or deleted if OS security is compromised, including authentication, passwords and threats to systems and programs.
