00:00:01.040 --> 00:00:03.170
Now, before we close out this course,

00:00:03.500 --> 00:00:06.090
I want to go over some additional information that might

00:00:06.090 --> 00:00:08.060
help you out in your pfSense journey.

00:00:09.740 --> 00:00:14.070
The first thing I want to talk about is some of the capabilities of pfSense

00:00:14.070 --> 00:00:19.190
that you can add to immediately make an impact on your network. And some of

00:00:19.190 --> 00:00:23.830
these capabilities may require additional packages, some may not. What's

00:00:23.830 --> 00:00:27.240
really cool about pfSense's community is that there's a whole bunch of

00:00:27.250 --> 00:00:33.480
recipes or cookbooks similar to white papers or configuration manuals that

00:00:33.490 --> 00:00:39.530
give us very specific recipes or configuration parameters to use for

00:00:39.540 --> 00:00:40.560
different use cases.

00:00:40.940 --> 00:00:46.400
So one of them is this one using FTP without a proxy, and here's another

00:00:46.400 --> 00:00:49.110
one where we're actually using a transparent proxy.

00:00:49.120 --> 00:00:52.710
So these are predefined use cases that expand the capabilities of

00:00:52.710 --> 00:00:55.960
pfSense and lay out the configuration for us.

00:00:56.190 --> 00:01:01.260
And you can always go to the pfSense website to get involved in either

00:01:01.260 --> 00:01:05.040
contributing to the code, or you can contribute by adding in your own

00:01:05.040 --> 00:01:09.910
specific use cases and recipes for those. As far as the related

00:01:09.910 --> 00:01:13.710
information goes surrounding this course, we have our link to the NIST

00:01:13.720 --> 00:01:18.370
cybersecurity framework, which is what we based some of our use cases on

00:01:18.370 --> 00:01:19.850
in this course specifically.

00:01:20.840 --> 00:01:26.260
And then the MITRE Engage website as well, where it gives us defenders a lot

00:01:26.260 --> 00:01:30.880
of great information on how we can mitigate specific attacks or how we can

00:01:30.890 --> 00:01:33.650
help detect specific threats or attacks as well.

00:01:34.640 --> 00:01:36.950
And with that, we're wrapping up the course.

00:01:37.540 --> 00:01:40.270
I really hope that you learned how to set up the pfSense

00:01:40.270 --> 00:01:42.570
firewall and use it for those two use cases.

00:01:42.570 --> 00:01:43.450
But not only that,

00:01:43.840 --> 00:01:47.580
I also hope that you're able to take this knowledge and move

00:01:47.580 --> 00:01:51.890
forward with any firewall or any next‑gen device and start with

00:01:51.890 --> 00:01:55.110
the basics like we did here with the segmentation and remote

00:01:55.110 --> 00:01:58.380
access VPN and expand your knowledge,

00:01:58.390 --> 00:02:01.750
grow the capability that you have in your network or your lab.

00:02:02.240 --> 00:02:06.230
I really hope that you took some good knowledge away from this and hope that

00:02:06.240 --> 00:02:09.759
you'll be able to apply that knowledge in your career somehow,

00:02:10.440 --> 00:02:14.660
whether it's setting up a pfSense firewall or another vendor's firewall.

00:02:15.240 --> 00:02:18.460
These concepts that we went over today and going through the

00:02:18.460 --> 00:02:23.470
configurations to see the nuances that they have will only help

00:02:23.470 --> 00:02:27.360
solidify your knowledge in the future and be applicable to those other

00:02:27.370 --> 00:02:29.960
firewalls or other technologies that you use.

00:02:30.440 --> 00:02:33.950
Thanks so much for viewing this course, and I'll see you in the next one!
