Overview

Security Firewall.

A firewall is a network security device that monitors incoming and outgoing network traffic. It decides whether to allow or block specific traffic based on a defined set of security rules.

Firewalls have served as a first line of defense in network security for more than 25 years. They establish a barrier between secured, controlled internal networks that can be trusted and untrusted outside networks, such as the internet.

A firewall can be hardware, software, or a combination of both.
