Discovery of Windows XP firewall covert abilities.
XP Firewall Control overbuilds Window XP firewall.
SphinxSoftware has started the development of a new consumer product line for personal network security.
The first product of the line - XP Firewall control – has been released.
Basing on the firewall included into Windows XP Service Pack 2, XP Firewall control expands area of application of the firewall and offers new approaches to application security.
Every application being behind the firewall has its own object and unique behavior. Therefore, there is no a universal approach to determine beforehand which type of network access will be safe for an application.
As the result, the application network access requires individual adjustments. The purpose of the adjustment is to define a proper “security zone” for the application.
XP Firewall Control allows composing, storing and using the security zones for a single application and for application group. Using all the present abilities of Windows XP firewall, XP Firewall Control extends them with application level security model, introduces per-application named security zones and allows
security zone manipulation at friendly consumer level.
Features:
Complete usage of Windows XP firewall benefits;
Handy application access control on the desktop;
Per-application security zones;
One touch security settings for applications;
Group security zone management;
User-defined zones;
Security zone composer;
