What additional value do you see that providing?
I don't see much reason,. but if there is a feature on those products which you feel would add additional protection mechanisms and would therefore improve your security policy, then you can go for it.
Sincerely,

David,
in order to mitigate the risk that our PIX could be hacked from outside
he wants to deploy another security device (bridged F/W) in front of it.
By the way is it relatively easy to crack the PIX repectively are any intrusions
well known?
So long, Rainer

Hi Rainer,
If you practice good security policies (SSH / ASDM with AAA), then only authorized users will have access to your PIX. Any security issues related to Cisco's products are publicly disclosed at: www.cisco.com/go/psirt
I personally do not see the value of placing another security device in front of the PIX, mearly to attempt to protect the PIX.
Sincerely,
David.
