About

CacheGuard-OS is a free, open-source Linux-based network security appliance OS that turns any standard x86 machine into a UTM gateway. It sits between your devices and your ISP router, becoming the checkpoint for all internet traffic — no IT team required. Open-source since its first release, CacheGuard-OS includes: stateful firewall, web antivirus (ClamAV), URL filtering, SSL inspection, WAF (ModSecurity), VPN server (StrongSwan), web cache (Squid), QoS (IPRoute2), and WAN load balancing. It installs on bare metal or any common hypervisor in under an hour. Configuration is handled through a web-based admin interface with no command-line expertise needed. Built for small businesses, schools, and sysadmins who need production-grade network security on commodity hardware.
