Zenected Threat Defense VPN

---------------------------



__Zenected__ is a cloud based security threat protection service. It’s delivered through a set of pre-configured services. Once a user connects to the __Zenected__, that user’s network traffic is filtered to keep the bad things out (e.g. phishing sites, malware). The only thing this a user has to configure on the endpoint device (be it a mobile device, a desktop or laptop or IoT device) is a VPN connection.



All services are updated every hour with a new set of threat indicators prepared by Perun Works.



__Zenected__ is easy to manage. It uses a web front-end for administrators to manage your instance. An administrator user can:

- manage __Zenected__ users including adding more admin users

- blacklist URLs or domain names that you don't want your users to access

- whitelist URLs or domain names, that were identified as malicious but you still want your users to be able to get to them

- review exception requests from users



If you are a __Zenected__ end-user what you will like about it, is:

- no need to install additional software on your mobile phone, tablet or laptop – __Zenected__ uses standard OS features build-in into all modern systems

- if you encounter a certain resource blocked by the system, you can request an exception. Each exception is then reviewed by an administrator.

Requirements

------------

1. Host running Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. You can use the mini install (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD)

2. If you plan to run it at home, please make sure you have a routable IP address. If you are not sure about it, please ask you ISP for help.

3. Make sure you open the following ports on your router:

   `tcp 80` (webserver),

   `tcp 443` (webserver - user admin and Zenected admin),

   `udp 500` (VPN),

   `udp 4500` (VPN)



Installation

------------

It's fairly simple, but requires a few steps.



1. Copy the **__zenected_install.sh__** into your future __Zenected__ server to __/opt__ folder.

2. Make the file executable by:

   `sudo chmod 750 /opt/zenected_install.sh`

3. Run it:

   `sudo /opt/zenected_install.sh`

4. Relax for a few minutes. Now it's a good time to grab a coffee. The install will take a few minutes depending on your system specs.

5. Once the script finishes, check if __Zenected__ got installed by:

   `dpkg -s zenected-aws`

6. If the __zenected__ package is not installed, you can install it by:

   `sudo apt-get install zenected-aws`

7. Once __zenected__ is installed on your system, please configure it by running:

   `sudo /opt/zenected/zenected_setup.zenx`

   

Thanks!
