What are the difference between ASA and Juniper

some people think using another brand in whole cisco network can have diversity to make hacker harder to enter? is it correct?

The only experience I have with Juniper is some of our business partners use Juniper on the remote end of an IPSec tunnel.

 

So what I can tell you is a bit limited.

I believe Juniper may not allow multiple prefixes to be grouped into one security policy.

The defaults are different -- and sometimes we had to go 'less secure' to ensure compatibility.

I could be wrong but I believe TACACS+ is still proprietary to Cisco.

So is EIGRP.

 

Other than that, there's the obvious differences when configuring.

As far as making it harder on hackers...

With my experience, I'll go with Cisco every time.  For consistency, high availability, and because it's what I know.

If I were just as familiar with Juniper I'm sure I could make a secure environment with Juniper devices.

I don't think I'd ever mix and match willingly, for any reason.
