Protoport Personal Firewall
Personal firewall ia a technology that helps prevent intruders from accessing data on your PC via
the Internet or another network, by keeping unauthorized data from entering or exiting your system.
Luckly, you can protect your data. Protoport Personal Firewall can block malicious attacks and
protect your PC from outside threats.
When you're connected to the Internet, you're sending and receiving information in small units
called packets. A packet contains the addresses of the sender and the recipient along with a piece
of data, a request, a command, or almost anything having to do with your connection to the Internet.
But just as with postal mail, not every package that arrives at your computer is one you want to open.
Protoport Personal Firewall examines each data packet sent to or from your computer to see if it meets
a set of criteria. The firewall then selectively passes or blocks the packet.

Protoport Personal Firewall unique features:
- The firewall is installed at the lowest possible level as NDIS IM and TDI drivers.
All computer network traffic comes through these two drivers. This means your computer will have a two level
protection system.
- Protoport Personal Firewall is small and fast. Most filtering is done on driver level.
Network performance will not be affected in any way.
- Native support of all popular protocols: ARP, IP, TCP, UDP, ICMP, IGMP, IPX, OSPF.
Other protocols are supported via their numbers.
- Anti-hacker protection. Protoport Personal Firewall has build-in algorythms that
detect hacker attacks like port scan and denial of service (DoS) attacks. Once detected, the attacker is
permanently blocked at lowest driver level.
- Black list feature. You can put remote IP adresses and/or local port numbers in
black list. Network packets will be blocked regardless any permissive rules.
- User can specify rules for any protocol, local IP, remote IP address, MAC address,
application etc.
- Protoport Personal Firewall is extendable. Unlike our competitors, the program does not pickup all extentions
it can find. user must confirm using every extention. On startup, program compares checksum of extention, and load
it only if extention is recognized.
Protoport Personal Firewall Extentions:
- Bandwidth Limit
This extention will limit traffic that maches specific rule.
- Net Status
This shows active IP connections as well as list of listening local ports.
Traffic real-time staticstics is available as well.
- Packet Log
Network packets could be saved for later review. To do so, enable Log Packet checkbox for specific rule on Rules tab.
- Applications
This extention will accumulate traffic statistics for every application.
You can see how many bytes each application sent and received every month.
- Web Guard
Web Guard can block Java Script, online ads (banners), active content (Flash movies,
ActiveX components, Java applets). This will greatly reduce received traffic, and save
your money, if you pay for traffic.
