Norman Personal Firewall

Norman Personal Firewall keeps unauthorized users out of your system.

Personal computers and computers in an organization have information which is valuable for the user. However, that information may also be valuable for others who should not have access to it.

Every day the media publish articles about people and organizations that have been attacked by “crackers” trying to gain information from networks or single workstations.

Even if computer does not have valuable information, it may be compromised and used maliciously. It may be used as a tool to attack other computers. Early in 2000 crackers used a lot of computers belonging to unknowing owners, to shut down several major web sites by using a technique called Distributed Denial of Services (DDoS) attacks.

To prevent this from happening you need to be able to keep unauthorized people out of your systems.

Almost all organizations are using Firewalls to stop these problems. However, such systems are usually too expensive for small organizations and home users.

Norman's product - The Norman Personal Firewall - is designed to be used by home users and organizations that want to protect their PCs from being compromised by attacks from the Internet or the local network.
