Firewall Protected Transit Connections

The Othello::Server::Firewall Protection service provides you with protection against unwanted visitors, potential attacks, Denial of Service (DoS and DDoS) and other nasties.

Hacking and attempted break-ins and site defacements are attempted daily, and the results can be devastating to your server.

For any business who relies on the internet, we recommend that they secure their systems, and protect against attack with a firewall and intrusion detection systems.

If you are not currently running, or not able to run your own firewall system, then you need the Othello::Server::Firewall Protection Package providing you with a rules based accept and deny system through an online control panel.

Using the Firewall Control Panel, you define the rules for machine/service access, allowing/disallowing ip addresses and hosts in the form ...

Firewall Rules Example
Allow IPserviceport
195.224.50.10http80
195.224.50.10https81

Deny IPserviceport
80.82.142.9all*
216.119.20.4ftp25
allpop3110

You can select any port, not just the standard ones for
  • Telnet : 21
  • SSH(2) : 22
  • SMTP Mail Server : 25
  • FTP Server : 25
  • Domain Name Servives: 53
  • Web Server : 80
  • Secure Web Server : 81
  • POP3 E-mail : 110
    etc.
Giving you full control over who can access your system(s) and what they can see.

The Othello::Firewall Protection Service is available to all our Dedicated and Collocated Server customers for just
