About Squid

Squid is a free, open-source caching and forwarding HTTP/HTTPS proxy widely used to accelerate web delivery, reduce bandwidth, and enforce access control and content filtering. It supports forward and reverse proxying, caching, SSL bumping and rich ACLs, and is deployed by ISPs, enterprises and CDNs. Support and hardening are often obtained via third-party vendors.
