Products based on OpenBSD

The following products are based on OpenBSD:

• nCircle Network Security
  nCircle Network Security (formerly Hiverworld) enables comprehensive network security, going beyond intrusion detection to provide intelligent intrusion prevention. Its patent-pending IP360 solution delivers continuous, non-invasive vulnerability assessment combined with full wire-speed traffic monitoring and intrusion analysis. nCircle has chosen the OpenBSD Operating System for its Scanning Sensor, Intrusion Sensor and Console Engine which all run on a secure, network appliance.

• RTMX
  RTMX sells a version of OpenBSD which has a full complement of POSIX real-time features added to it. They have graciously donated the source code for these extensions, and these changes will be integrated into OpenBSD soon.

• syscall Network Solutions
  Syscall Network Solutions produces the syswall security appliance based on OpenBSD. The syswall Security Appliance contains a stateful packet-filtering firewall, an intrusion detection system and VPN capabilities even with dynamic IP addresses. It was specifically designed for Managed Security Services and Managed Security Monitoring offered by our IT Security Experts. It is also possible to use the syswall as DSL or cable router as it supports PPPoE and DHCP.

• GeNUA
  GeNUA mbH, a company based in Munich, Germany, offers sophisticated IT security solutions based on OpenBSD: The two-tier GeNUGate system is the only firewall certified by the German Federal Office for Information Security (BSI) at E3 / high level under the ITSEC international standard. The crypto appliance GeNUBox was developed for remote control of machines via the Internet. Among others, an important function of this GeNUA product is to set up SSH-encrypted tunnels for data transmission via the Internet and to provide an integrated application platform.

Hardware/Software products for OpenBSD

The following products are known to work on OpenBSD:

• PowerCrypt by GTGI
  Global Technologies Group, Inc. produces PowerCrypt, an intelligent, bus-mastering PCI board that incorporates the Hifn 7751 encryption processor. Kernel-level support was developed by OpenBSD, with device drivers and IPsec code written by members of the OpenBSD community.

• Open Sound System by 4Front (i386 only)
  4Front Technologies provides a substantially spiffed-up commercial version of the OpenBSD/i386 audio device drivers. These replacement drivers are compatible with the audio drivers OpenBSD/i386 ships with, but they support many additional cards and take full advantage of these cards' features. This package is available for OpenBSD/i386 3.x

• Core Systems
  Core Systems sells InSite, an easy to use, server-side web statistics utility, for OpenBSD/i386. InSite is similar to products such as WebTrends, but can also be configured through a web interface to generate reports on the fly, using very little CPU time. (Upon request, Core may be able to provide InSite for platforms other then i386.)

• Software2Go Motif (i386 and SPARC only)
  Software2Go, LLC has Motif 2.1.20 Development and Runtime toolkits for OpenBSD.
  The development distribution is for software developers building graphical user interface applications with the Motif look and feel. The runtime distribution is required to deploy binary-only applications.

• My Restaurant
  My Restaurant is a completely integrated hardware/software product that allows restaurants to manage every aspect of their business (from point of sale to supply chain management and everything in between). OpenBSD allows wbp systems to create a product that is unbelievably stable, a credit to OpenBSD's excellent design.

• Legato CRM
  wbp systems' Legato CRM allows the wireless store owner to perform accounting, inventory, employee management and customer management from a single product. An integrated hardware/software product, Legato depends on OpenBSD's solid performance and versatility.
