    Today computer security plays an important role in all sectors of society starting with government agencies, educational institutions, financial institutions, health centers and of course companies; the commitment and responsibility of each of them is to safeguard their data and information of people which leads to use platforms to efficiently manage the threats that try to breach the security of a network. This research project aims to implement a perimeter security platform for the company Simantec, due to the business line of the company and the flow of information it handles, a perimeter security system covers the needs and requirements demanded by this entity, being the highest priority the protection of all data considered the most important asset of the entity. The implementation of a proprietary UTM (Unified Threat Manager) at the boundary of the Internet and LAN will mitigate the threats to which the data is exposed, functions such as antivirus, anti-spyware, anti-spam, network firewall, intrusion prevention and detection, and content filtering will maximize the security of the information. In addition, the creation of VPN to access the internal network from anywhere and access the company's services will increase security. At the same time, another defense equipment will be configured, a software UTM with the same functions of the proprietary UTM. The objective is to compare the two threat managers, analyze the advantages and disadvantages of each one in order to choose the best option considering cost/benefit, features, performance, security and above all profitability. Finally, we propose the development of a plan of good security practices, with the aim that employees incorporate as a habit certain methods to prevent attacks carried out through malicious activities by third persons.
