What is a Firewall?
A firewall is a security system that monitors and controls incoming and outgoing network traffic based on predefined security rules. It serves as the first line of defense against cyber threats by filtering potentially harmful traffic before it reaches your network.
Acting as a protective barrier between your internal network and external threats, firewalls help organizations maintain a secure IT environment and protect valuable business data from unauthorized access and malicious attacks.
Modern firewall solutions provide protection for:
- Malware and ransomware attacks
- Unauthorized network access attempts
- Suspicious incoming and outgoing traffic
- Data breaches and cyber threats
- Business-critical systems and applications
