In times of trojan-laden E-Mails unintentionally sent even by trustworthy people, drive-by browser infections, network intrusions through accidentally opened ports and hacked user accounts because of data sent in clear text, it is necessary to have ONE single solution for all of these problems. By offering on open source firewall which is easily configurable to ones individual needs within the powerful web interface Altimate Net GmbH provides such a solution.

Besides the combination of well known and well proven software like "Shorewall", "Avira Antivir", "Open VPN" and many more, the outstanding feature of the Altimate Firewall is its web interface. It is built to be easy to use for everyone - from the average user trying to protect its network all the way up to professional small-business network administrators. Every single setting can be adjusted on-the-fly within the web interface. Each modulation has its own tab and is - in most cases - independent from other settings. While firewall rules for individual programs can be easily configured with drag&drop there are also settings for advanced users like configuring a static VPN connection to a remote destination. It is as powerful as it is easy to use!
