Tip: Travel with your Linux Firewall in your pocket
How to make a server room full with Linux security appliances available to traveling users? If you are traveling a lot with you laptop and if you like to have the same level of security as within your company’s corporate network – this is perhaps a solution for you.
Yoggie has developed a small device with a powerful 520 Mhz Intel Processor that fits in your pocket. It looks like a USB Memory Stick but it runs a complete hardened Linux-based Operating System inside. The solution combines a statefull inspection firewall and NAT combined with other security applications like Proxies, Anti-Virus, Spyware- and SPAM Protection.
The device also includes two separate Flash memory units. One of the units stores a secured copy of the Linux OS. During pre boot, Yoggie Pico copies the OS onto the second unit, and uses it during runtime. The original copy of the OS, stored on the first unit, does not include any “Write Access” permissions.
