The world’s first optical firewall?
According to ICT Results, researchers for a EU-funded project named WISDOM are developing an optical firewall which aims to clear Internet security bottlenecks. WISDOM is an acronym for ‘Wirespeed security domains using optical monitoring.’ The project started in June 2006 and should be completed in May 2009 for a total cost of €1.91 million. This optical firewall should be able to analyze data on fiber optic networks at speeds of 40 gigabits per second.
