Simple and practical firewall
Rating: 10 out of 10
IncentivizedUse Cases and Deployment Scope
This system is being used in my company to have a firewall that helps me to prevent intruders from entering my network and doing damage to the servers. This application also helps to administer my network by prohibiting users from using unwanted pages, to prevent users from downloading files that contain malware and may be harmful to the company's network.
Pros
- easy to manage by its web platform that allows quick access to system functions
- allows the administration of the company's network by creating IP navigation permissions to prevent access to unprotected pages
- this system can be installed on computers with very few resources and even with old equipment just by adapting an additional network card. This is helpful for companies that are starting and do not have much capital to invest but need to protect their systems
Cons
- The way to be installed is still a bit difficult and should be more graphic as you are doing all the distributions of linux to make it easier to understand new users
Likelihood to Recommend
This system is very useful for companies of few resources and for novice users with small and domestic networks. On the other hand, for a large company where you have a lot of network equipment connected, it's possible that the equipment collapses and does not work well with this service.
