Squid is a complex piece of software, which is deployed in a vast number of 
scenarios, some are simpler and some are intensely adversarial and 
trickier.Securing squid is similar to any other public-facing complex service; 
it's unfortunately not something that can be explained with a few tips.
Regarding how many users Squid can support at the same time, it really depends, 
mostly on the hardware, services configuration, and user behaviour. On modern 
hardware, Squid can generally support many users, in the order of several 
thousands
Squid is not a firewall, on most modern Unix-like operating systems, including 
Linux, FreeBSD, and OpenBSD, that role can be fulfilled by the underlying 
operating system

Hello,I have some questions:1- What tips should be considered to keep 
Squid-cache safe?

2- How strong is Squid-cache? How many users can use it at the same time?
3- Can Squid-cache also play the role of a firewall? Something like the 
Microsoft ForeFront TMG Replacement or the Kemp LoadMaster.

Thank you._______________________________________________
