Personal Firewall Day

Posted by Beat Rubischon on Friday January 16, @10:02AM
from the one-day-too-late dept.
Yesterday was the Personal Firewall Day - a marketing action of several vendors of firewalling and virus scanning software.
The idea is to use the occasion of Personal Firewall Day to share your expertise and advice with your lesser technologically skilled friends and family.

Several articles exists in ETHZ and on our site and I like to give you a pointer to them:

Network security page of the IT-Services
Personal Firewall introduction from Urs Meile
Troubles with personal firewalls - things you should check before using a personal firewall, and also the link to our ping test
Kerio personal firewall a solution provided by IDES for Windows
Router aka Firewalls - a hardware solution to protect unpatchable computers

Keep in mind that the most important thing is to keep your computer up to date. Did you allready installed the latest Windows update?
