11.1
For more digital sovereignty and future viability
With the new firmware version LCOS FX 11.1 for Unified Firewalls, we are setting new standards in terms of digital sovereignty and network security. A significant step forward is the integration of Bitdefender's European anti-malware engine. This strategic migration follows the acquisition of our previous provider by an American company and strengthens our commitment to reliable European security solutions. At the same time, LCOS FX 11.1 now supports IPv6 on the WAN and VPN side. Firewalls can therefore be operated downstream of an IPv6 line and networked via VPN (IPSec and WireGuard). LCOS FX 11.1 embodies security, independence, and future-proof technology.
European anti-malware engine
With the new firmware version LCOS FX 11.1 for Unified Firewalls, we are sending a strong signal for digital sovereignty. We are now using the European anti-malware engine from Bitdefender. This migration is a deliberate step after our previous service provider was taken over by an American company. We remain true to our line and strengthen our commitment to trustworthy European security solutions. LCOS FX 11.1 stands for security and independence – a clear statement that we rely on quality and control from Europe to optimally protect your data.
IPv6
As of LCOS FX 11.1, your Unified Firewalls support IPv6 on both the WAN and VPN side. This means that your firewalls can be operated downstream of an IPv6 line without any problems, including VPN site networking (IPSec and WireGuard) based on IPv6. This extension also enables a secure remote VPN connection to the central Unified Firewall via IPv6.
