Building a Business - Ep. 2 - Firewalls | pfSense vs OPNsense

pfSense and OPNsense are both free and open-source firewall solutions that offer great protection for zero cost. Firewalls are absolutely critical to any business and should be considered early to protect you, your infrastructure and hopefully your customers.
