IPCop vs WatchGuard® Firebox® X500

"neilSanner" skrev i meddelandet news: snipped-for-privacy@z14g2000cwz.googlegroups.com... Hi,

I've just installed IPCop on a computer. It was pretty easy and straightforward!

Now I'd like to know if IPCop is cabable of doing most what an advanced firewall can do. Let's say the WatchGuard® Firebox® X500.

Among the most advanced things the Firebox can do are (IMHO):

-Deep Application Inspection

-Intrusion Prevention

-Gateway Antivirus

-Web content filtering

-Spam control

Any ideas?

it work´s whith ipcop 1.4.6 too. For antivirus . Intrusion Prevention? It is a firewall. "Spam control" don´t run it as a mail server. Regards Anders.

, that nice!

Is there a way that IPCop can provide application level security?

Is there a way IPCop can detect some trojans or other malware that are working from the inside (the green network) and access the outside world (red network)?

X-No-Archive: Yes

No, that's what you use Zone Alarm and similar for.

You should ask ipcop related questions in the ipcop support forum at
