Description

CacheGuard-OS is an open-source Linux-based UTM gateway appliance OS that has been in active development since 2002. It is designed to run on commodity x86 hardware and act as the default route between an internal network and the internet, replacing the ISP-provided router as the traffic checkpoint. The stack integrates: Squid (web cache and proxy), ClamAV (web antivirus), ModSecurity (WAF), StrongSwan (IPsec/IKEv2 VPN), IPRoute2 (QoS and WAN load balancing), NetFilter (stateful firewall), SSL inspection, and URL filtering. All components are configured through a web-based admin interface rather than directly, making the platform accessible to operators without deep Linux expertise while remaining auditable by those who want to inspect the underlying configuration. The OS has been open-source since its first release — source ships on every installed appliance. It was recently published publicly on GitHub to make the codebase easier to browse and audit. Target deployments are small to medium networks — SMBs, schools, and branch offices — where a commercial UTM appliance is overkill on budget but the threat surface is the same. Runs on bare metal or common hypervisors (VMware, VirtualBox, KVM, Hyper-V). No vendor lock-in, no subscription, no licence cost. GitHub: cacheguard/CacheGuard-OS

Description

Greypanel CDN is a sophisticated dispatching system that has been independently researched and developed to effectively allocate acceleration nodes situated globally, based on the geographical location of users. By directing users to the closest available resources, Greypanel CDN enhances the capacity of web services, elevates the quality of network access, increases download speeds, and minimizes response times, resulting in a more seamless user experience. Aimed primarily at portals and e-commerce platforms, Greypanel CDN stores static content—including web pages, HTML, CSS, JS, images, and files—on the nodes to expedite the distribution process. This setup allows visitors to retrieve content from the closest node, enabling the rapid loading of complex data within seconds, which greatly boosts web access speeds and lessens site response times, ultimately leading to an improved experience for users. Additionally, users can take advantage of a fast, reliable, and secure dynamic request acceleration through our vast network of acceleration nodes, complemented by an ample pool of direct connections and an intelligent scheduling mechanism that optimizes performance. This comprehensive approach ensures that users benefit from an efficient and high-performing web experience.
