Subscription

Nethesis offers two types of subscription services for NethSecurity, which provides additional benefits and features:

  • Community subscription: self-service registration mostly suited for IT consultant. For more info, see the subscription plans page.

    Community subscription portal is available at my.nethserver.com

  • Enterprise subscription: service reserved to Nethesis resellers, please contact the sales department.

    Enterprise subscription portal is available at: my.nethesis.it

Typical benefits of the subscription service include:

  • Monitoring portals: subscribers can access monitoring portals to manage their subscription and receive :ref:`alerts <alert-section>` for registered servers.
  • Enhanced DPI signatures: firewalls with a valid subscription have access to a much larger database of :ref:`DPI signatures <dpi_filter-section>` (more than 1820 in total instead of 415) that are regularly updated.
  • Enterprise Block lists: Firewalls with a valid subscription can purchase high-quality IP and DNS blocklists. These lists are actively maintained, updated very frequently, and exhibit high effectiveness while generating a very low number of false positives, they can be used in :ref:`IP <threat_shield_ip-section>` and :ref:`DNS <threat_shield_dns-section>` block lists.
  • Automatic remote backup: subscribers can benefit from automatic remote backups of the firewall configuration. This feature is crucial for businesses that need to ensure the safety of their data and configurations.
  • Support: subscribers can receive priority support on stable releases. This can be crucial for businesses relying on NethSecurity for their operations. See also :ref:`remote_support-section`.
  • Consultation and customization: subscribers could get consultation services and assistance with customization to tailor the server's functionalities according to specific business requirements.
