Mar 13 — Data security provider, Comodo, released Trustix Enterprise Firewall version 4.8, (TEF) a free enterprise class LINUX-based firewall solution. Trustix Enterprise Firewall is designed to provide a high performance firewall that 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 commercial version builds on the previous BETA release of this solution and incorporates a powerful new anti-SPAM module for improved performance and security.
Trustix Enterprise Firewall provides a WYSIWYG feature in combination with its security features and remains free for use with no license, subscription, or renewal fees. The technology in this firewall was designed to allow a high level of control over inbound and outbound network traffic in order to ensure the security of the network. Administrators are able to monitor all network activity including any malicious activity, utilize an intuitive GUI to visualize and edit firewall policies, and manage traffic for all security zones (up to 24).
Additionally, this new release adds new technology designed to improve the efficiency of TEF: spam and content filtering, high availability and load balancing, an integrated anti-virus engine, and an intrusion detection system.
