The best intrusion detection system app is the cornerstone of security for any size network. The app uses the highly regarded Snort engine to perform real-time traffic analysis and packet logging on Internet Protocol (IP) networks. The app can help identify, log and stop (using the IPS plugin) external attack vectors targeting the network (fingerprinting, buffer overflows, brute force authentication etc.). The app contains over 1000 known attack vector signatures with another 8000+ signatures available (with continuous updates) via the IDS update subscription from ClearCenter (app available in the Marketplace).
The Content Filter app allows an administrator to enforce browsing policy. Policy can be enforced across all users or, group definitions can be created, allowing an admin to categorise users into groups - to be filtered uniquely based on the group policy/definition. The Content filter uses both blacklists and word association algorithms to determine suitable content based on category settings. Enabling the Content Filter app can be used to enforce company policy and/or meet regulatory compliance (eg. Children's Internet Protection Act or CIPA).
The Software Updates app provides updates for the underlying operating system components. Availability of updates are dependant on which software repositories are enabled.
The ips intrusion prevention system app is a plugin to the intrusion detection system. The service dynamically creates firewall rules (iptables) to block IP packets if a packet stream matches a known attack signature. Signatures are provided by the intrusion detection app, containing over 1000 known attack vectors. An additional 8,000-10,000 signatures are available (and continually updated) via the IDS update subscription from ClearCenter (app available in the Marketplace).
Dropbox is a cloud-based file storage and synchronization service. Use this app to synchronize files to a folder located in your home directory which can then be accessed by any device associated to the same Dropbox account (laptop, smartphone, tablet etc.).
The port forwarding firewall app allows an administrator to direct incoming service requests via port (or port ranges) to other devices on the Local Area Network (LAN). The destination device is usually a server providing an Internet service like hosting an on-premise website (HTTP port 80) or mail server (SMTP port 25), but can also be a desktop or other device (remote desktop using RDP, Bit Torrent client etc.).
An Access Control List (ACL) allowing an administrator (root) to grant sub-administrator access to specific configuration pages within webconfig on a per user basis.
