Product contents

F-Secure Internet Gatekeeper is a gateway product that acts as a virus scanning proxy for HTTP, SMTP, POP, and FTP protocols.

The product uses F-Secure’s scanning technologies to scan for malware. They provide outstanding protection level and fast, automatic updates to the scanning engines and anti-virus databases. With F-Secure’s Real-Time Protection Network, the product can react to new threats rapidly, which keeps the users protected and enhances the protection even further.

The product can be integrated with third-party HTTP proxies with the standard ICAP protocol. The content that is submitted to the ICAP service is scanned with F-Secure’s malware scanning technologies.

New features

This release contains the following new features, bug fixes and other changes that have been added since the 5.00.5 release.

  • ICAP service supports scanning emails for malware and spam.
  • A new and improved web user interface has been added.
  • A new quick start guide has been added for easy installation and usage instructions.
  • Fixed CTS-82476: fsaua now restarts automatically when user changes the virus database download proxy settings from the web user interface.
  • Fixed CTS-84901: FmLib library version is not visible in the web user interface.
  • Fixed CTS-86302: Added documentation for configuring the HTTP proxy for anti-spam daemon (fsasd) in the administrator guide.
  • Fixed CTS-91777: Fixed detecting malicious javascript and html files.
  • Fixed CTS-91852: Added missing information for ICAP detections templates in administrator guide.
  • Fixed CTS-91867: Improved the documentation for the transparent proxy bridge mode using subnet in the administrator guide.
  • Fixed CTS-92431: Improved the detection rate for policy-based blocking for javascripts and ActiveX scripts.
  • Fixed CTS-92216: Fix timeout_inactive for web servers that take more time than keepalive_timeout to start sending the reponse to IGK.
  • Fixed CTS-92759: Fixed the log size specification of logconv tool in the administrator guide.
  • Fixed CTS-92797: Fixed information for the scanning daemon (fsavd) process management in the administrator guide.
  • Fixed CTS-92814: Parsing a very large email header can lead to a false detection or other unexpected result.
  • Fixed CTS-92861: IGK fails to detect too long HTTP request URL.
  • Fixed CTS-93579: Fixed information about connection error messages in the administrator guide.
  • Fixed CTS-94390: Added missing system requirements and dependencies in the IGK release notes.
  • Fixed CTS-94834: Added information about orsp_file_check for the HTTP proxy in the administrator guide.

This release contains the following new features, bugfixes and other changes that have been added since the 4.10.17 release.

  • Support for F-Secure Real-Time Protection Network has been added to the HTTP proxy. When enabled, common files are identified by rapidly updating black and white lists. This saves system resources and improves protection.
  • The malware scanning capabilities are now available by a standard ICAP interface. This enables integration with third party proxies that support ICAP.
  • The list of supported distributions was reworked to focus on the most popular, current and actively supported distributions.
  • Removed dependency to Java, which is a common source of security vulnerabilities. The Java runtime environment is no longer distributed with the product. As a consequence, this release does not contain a web UI, but is also significantly smaller and lighter. The configuration is done by editing the configuration files directly.
  • Improved quality of RPM packages.
  • Improved the output from IGK init scripts.
  • Fixed CTS-91383: Added an option to control whether to transparently re-establish keepalive upstream HTTP connections.

If you are upgrading from a version that is earlier than 4.10.17 ,4.11.8 or 4.12.5, see the release notes of version 4.12.5 for the list of earlier changes.

Known issues

  • Upgrading from any 2.X or 3.X version is not supported. Uninstall the old version completely before installing F-Secure Internet Gatekeeper 5.0.
  • Upgrading from the 4.X Japanese version of the product (virusgw) to the international version (fsigk) is not supported. Follow the instructions in the administrator guide of the product to migrate settings from the old (virusgw) installation to a F-Secure Internet Gatekeeper 5.10 (fsigk) installation.
