Latest update provides perimeter protection to corporate networks and delivers the highest levels of security and protection out-of-the-box.
Comodo, a security company, today announced an updated release of Trustix Enterprise Firewall version 4.8.1 - an enterprise class, open source LINUX-based free firewall solution. The company states that the Trustix Firewall provides robust perimeter protection to corporate networks and delivers the highest levels of security and protection out-of-the-box. This high performance firewall monitors network traffic and protects the network against unauthenticated traffic or login attempts which could inject Trojans, worms, or infected files into the network. This free, commercial version now incorporates a powerful new anti-SPAM module for improved performance and security, it adds.
The company explains that the Trustix Enterprise Firewall is acclaimed for its innovative, drag-and-drop user interface which allows administrators to quickly set and modify complicated firewall settings such as De-Militarized Zones without having to program using a command line. This feature enables administrators to visualize and configure firewall policy, DMZ's, port forwarding, network address translation and virtual private network settings in a few mouse clicks. The underlying rules generated by the program are then fully optimized before being deployed, thereby optimizing the security and performance of your firewall's architecture, and avoiding errors and duplication.
It adds that the latest version of the Trustix Enterprise Firewall contains the following new features and improvements:
- High Availability & Load balancer
- Intrusion Detection System
- VPN Connection
- Improved Client GUI
