IPCop Linux is a complete Linux Distribution. Its sole purpose to protect the network that it is installed on. By implementing existing technology, outstanding new technology and secure programming practices, IPCop is the Linux Distribution for those wanting to keep their computers/networks safe and sound.

IPCop firewall design attempts to eliminate as many features from the system as possible. The central idea is that the more code that runs on the firewall, the more places there are that are vulnerable to attacks. Do not expect facilities like sendmail or FTP daemons to be present. These are not needed on a firewall and may contain holes that are known to malicious users.
