DePure NG Security Gateway history

1

2014: First lines of the code

A Russian IT specialist and a friend of Evgeniy Khaskelberg, General Director at Soft-Master LTD, once came to him and asked whether Soft-Mastr LTD could upgrade the network security system in a subsidiary structure of a large Russian manufacturing holding. The network infrastructure protection of the subsidiary was a FreeBSD-based solution with anti-virus software on 80 workstations. The update was required to meet the regulatory requirements of the holding concerning network security.

Budget constraints and the customer’s technical requirements have determined the need to maintain the FreeBSD solution with a significant expansion of its functionality. This is how we started creating a new product.
