What is IPCop?

IPCop Firewall is a Linux-based distribution designed as a secure and cost-effective network firewall solution for home and small office/home office (SOHO) users. Leveraging stock or even outdated hardware, IPCop transforms a standard PC into a robust and versatile internet appliance, providing critical network security functionality typically found in expensive proprietary devices. The user-friendly, task-oriented interface allows for easy management of the firewall, including updates and configuration changes, all accessible through a simple web-based control panel. IPCop supports a wide range of internet connectivity options, including dial-up modems, cable, ADSL, leased lines, and ISDN, enabling multiple connected devices to share a secure internet access. Additionally, IPCop offers remote management capabilities, empowering users to securely monitor and reconfigure the firewall from any internet-connected location
