pfSense Plus software consists of a number of open source projects, Internet standards and protocols, independently maintained software modules and Netgate value-add software.

Netgate’s productization and ongoing release progression converts the above into a turnkey software product, complete with Netgate-assured testing, comprehensive documentation, release packaging, distribution and customer support.

A simple software stack diagram - complemented by a list of some of the more prominent software elements - most of which are user-insertable packages - describes the vast majority of pfSense Plus software from a software-plane taxonomy point of view.

We use pfSense to establish a Geo-fence and restrict unsolicited traffic from the most well-known attackers and attack methods..
