I feel like by now any networking device (router firewall, firewall) should have an AI defender built in into the OS by default as well, and be able to fully look into the traffic (in AND out). Yes it will need a better CPU and more RAM, no it’s not overkill. AI doing defender’s job as heuristics scanner could be updated at home. Bad traffic should be dropped as early as possible. At some point they will just start to exploit forum flaws in more dangerous ways. There’s already software like suricata, but hardware and such statuc rules for that are made expensive for the average user. Advanced defense should be made available to everyone.
