Firewalls outbound application filtering VS Leak Tests
Leaktest scoreboard explanation
This page gives you an overview of the needed things to know before looking at the results themselves, that you can reach by clicking the button "View Results" at the bottom of this page.
- (1 pts) : This icon means that the firewall is 'passing' sucessfully the leaktests while setup properly.
- (0,5 pts) : This icon means that the firewall is using a generic 'block' which is intercepting the leaktest at an earlier step, whereas there is no network access yet. While on one hand it can appear to be safer, on the other hand the technical alert given requires more knowledge from the user to do the right choice, which is less reliable than a sucessfull pass where the alert is about a network access. Moreover, these kind of protection will alert the user about many other legitimate activities which does not access the network.
- (0 pts) : This icon means that the firewall is 'failing' the leaktest.
