CoopGuard: State-of-the-art chicken fence security

Overview

The flagship firewall. Inspects traffic, blocks threats, and keeps the perimeter tighter than a hen sitting on her last egg.

CoopGuard is part of our Security line, and it plays nicely with Pecking Order RBAC and TalonAudit, so you can adopt it one perch at a time. Fowl play prevention for every flock, large or small.

Teams usually start with the free Chick plan, move to Hen when the flock grows past a handful, and graduate to Rooster once the security team wants audit logs. The upgrade is one click, and nobody needs to molt.

Key features

Phishing detection tuned to spot the oldest trick: a fox in a hen costume.
Automated pen-testing by a very aggressive goose.
CoopGuard sounds the alarm at dawn, but also at 2 a.m. when it actually matters.
One-click lockdown that rolls the metaphorical coop door shut.
Policies are written in plain language, like "no fox may enter" and compiled to rules.

What the flock says

★★★★☆ Cornelius C. VP Eng, Cornucopia Systems

The docs are shockingly good. We tested them by handing them to an intern.

★★★★★ Penelope P. Support Manager, Roost & Relax

Rolled it out to 800 hens without a single feather out of place.

★★★★☆ Penelope P. Support Manager, Roost & Relax

Four stars because I like to leave room for improvement, and for another snack.

Frequently asked questions

Is CoopGuard secure?

It is protected by CoopGuard at the perimeter and FeatherLock at rest, and audited annually by TalonAudit. Also, we have never lost a chicken. To our knowledge.

Who do I call when something goes wrong?

Our 24/7 clucking support line at (06) 123CLUCK. Please do not call during the 3 p.m. egg break, because we do not pick up.

How often is CoopGuard updated?

Every two weeks, on a Tuesday, shortly after the rooster crows. Release notes live in the changelog.
