Frequently asked questions

Why pfSense instead of a Fortinet or Sophos?
pfSense delivers comparable next-gen firewall capabilities — VPN, IDS/IPS, filtering, multi-WAN — without per-user or throughput licence fees. For many SA businesses it offers the best balance of capability, cost and flexibility. Where a specific vendor is required, we support those too.
Do you supply the hardware?
Yes. We size and supply appropriate appliance hardware for your throughput and feature needs, or deploy on suitable hardware you already own.
Can staff connect securely from home?
Absolutely. We configure remote-access VPN (OpenVPN, IPsec or WireGuard) so employees reach internal systems over an encrypted tunnel, with multi-factor authentication where required.
Will you manage it for us?
Yes. Our managed firewall service includes monitoring, security updates, rule changes and alerting, so your firewall stays effective long after deployment.
Can it connect multiple branches?
Yes. We build encrypted site-to-site VPNs linking your offices into one secure network, with failover across multiple internet links for resilience.
