Sygate firewall

HP’s XPe SP2 image includes a Sygate firewall.

HP Sygate Security Agent provides a customizable firewall that helps protect your computer from intrusion and misuse, whether malicious or unintentional. The firewall detects and identifies known Trojans, port scans, and other common attacks, and in response, selectively allows or blocks the use of various networking services, applications, ports, and components.

HP Sygate Standalone Agent has the ability to allow or block any port or protocol, inbound or outbound, by either application or traffic signature. The Agent not only blocks according to these parameters, but can also link them with logical and/or conditional statements, increasing the scope and flexibility of polices that you can apply. The Agent can also block and apply policy to custom protocol adapters, enabling enterprises to use custom network-enabled applications and to block applications that circumvent the TCP/IP stack with custom protocol adapters.
