      How Does Firewalla Cyber Security Work?

       Firewalla's main packet processing engine has four different stages:

      • Deep Insight: Make sense of all network traffic.  Dig deep and understand what they are.
      • Active Protect: Intrusion detection services to detect bad things and Intrusion prevention services to block before bad things happen.
      • Behavior analytics: See things from a different angle.
      • Control: This is where you tell us what to do.  Applying sophisticated rules to control traffic flows.


      From smart speakers to baby monitor cameras, there is no shortage of technology in your home for hackers to exploit. Firewalla sends automatic alerts and protects your devices from cyber threats.

      • Detect, prevent and block active cyberattacks and intrusions
      • Monitor for abnormal trends through intelligent behavior analytics
      • Actively block malicious sites in real-time
      • Continuously scan your home for security vulnerabilities and risks

        

       

      Blocking Countries off your Network

      Advanced GEO-IP Filtering

      Using GEO-IP Filtering, a technology that can block network traffic from entire countries, you can effectively stop hackers from remotely attacking your business or home network.   

      New Device Quarantine

      Protect your network by automatically place new/unknown devices in a Quarantine group.  You can apply any content filtering or rate limit rules to this Quarantine group.


      Make Your Privacy a Priority with VPN

      Are you comfortable sharing your data when using public Wi-Fi or traveling to regions where the internet is filtered or controlled?  Introducing Firewalla OpenVPN server, a VPN server that runs inside of your home or business without charging a monthly fee.

      • Protects privacy when using public wifi
      • No monthly fee or bandwidth throttling
      • Surf the web virtually “at home”…from anywhere
      • Bypass internet filtering and monitoring when traveling
      • Supports both OpenVPN and WireGuard 

        

      VPN Client:  Securely Connect to Any Device

      With Firewalla’s VPN Client, you can connect any device or devices in your network to many OpenVPN, WireGuard, and anyConnect-based services.  
      • Connect any IoT devices like Apple TV to third-party VPNs
      • Remotely connect your home devices to another Firewalla 
      • Connect two sites together with a site-to-site VPN and access devices securely both ways

        Say Goodbye to Annoying Ads

        Website ads and trackers have been frustrating internet users for years. That’s why Firewalla's built-in ad blocker makes sure you don't see ads and the ads don't see you.  

        • Block ads across all devices
        • DNS cache to speed up all other lookups

          

        Protect Your DNS

        DNS over HTTPS

        Traditionally DNS requests are sent in plain text between the client and the DNS server. DNS over HTTPS (DoH) sends DNS requests encrypted over HTTPS. It makes DNS exchange more secure and protects user privacy. 

        Unbound

        Unbound is a validating, recursive, caching DNS resolver, installed locally on the Firewalla box, which helps increase your online privacy and security.

        • Create a network segment for kids and employees with their own rules and policies.  You can limit access to the internet, filter activities, and more.
        • Isolate critical devices into their own network.  Only permit devices like security cameras to talk to their own network.
        • Create a secure guest network, in order to apply a high level of protection to your guests, and manage their activities in real-time.

         

        Segment Lockdown

        Actively quarantine any device and restrict its behavior on the network.  This feature works by blocking all traffic to and from any network segment, only allow selective sites or activities.    

        • New devices connecting to the network will need approval
        • Only allow school sites to be accessed
        • Only allow access to the company network and email
