SINUS Firewall0.1

One of the goals in the SINUS project is to assess the potential of security without obscurity. The SINUS Firewall is a TCP/IP packet filter for the Linux operating system. It is distributed under the GNU General Public Licence and comes with complete source code, as the Linux operating system does.

The SINUS firewall is a free and easy way to protect your network from the daily threats of the Internet. It does not guarantee perfect security, however it comes with a wealth of features, including:

-Filtering of all header fields in the IP, TCP, UDP, ICMP, IGMP packets. -Intelligent RIP and FTP support. -Easy to understand, text-based configuration. -Graphical management interface for configuration of several firewalls. -Dynamic rules, including counters and time-outs. -Extensive logging, alerting, and counter intelligence. -Prevention of packet and address spoofing.
