The feature set of OPNsense has been extended and improved with
high-end features such as forward caching proxy, traffic shaping,
intrusion detection and easy OpenVPN client setup. The latest
release is based upon FreeBSD 10.1 for long-term support and uses
the newly developed MVC-framework.
OPNsense's focus on security has led to enhancements including a
LibreSSL flavor and a custom version based on HardenedBSD. The
robust and reliable update mechanism gives OPNsense the ability to
provide important security updates in a timely fashion.
The OPNsense core team wants to thank everyone involved in
making the project a success. With thousands of installations
already in the field and a very active forum the community project
is thriving.
"Now that 'Brave Badger' is released, OPNsense is ready for
production environments," says Jos Schellevis, Deciso's CTO. "I am
very proud of the whole OPNsense team for this achievement."
Deciso is the company that founded the OPNsense project and
offers turnkey solutions as well as commercial support and oem
services.
