Announcing Lorica - A TAO Based CORBA Firewall Conduit42tools is pleased to announce the public availability of the first and only Open Source CORBA Firewall Conduit - Lorica Version 1.0
By: 42tools In today's connected world organizations are increasingly providing access via the internet to their staff and client/supplier base. Such access involves some risk. To mitigate that risk various software approaches are used. One such software approach is called a firewall because it prevents traffic or access across a system boundary. However some access is good traffic and is desirable. Therefore a tool is required to control and manage the flow of internet traffic between internal and external systems. The 42tools Lorica product allows system managers to get a free tool for controlling firewall traversal for CORBA applications. It is theirs to use as-is or adapt to their needs. Jules Colding, the founder of 42tools, commented that he felt Lorica was an important contribution to the Open Source community. He also believed that developers of commercial software would find Lorica an attractive product due to the ease at which Lorica could be tailor-made to their specific needs.
