Firewall

Firewall

Firewall is a set of security rules that prevents intruders from gaining access to confidential and sensitive information. Its task is to ensure that only approved communication happens and unauthorized communication is blocked and logged.

The primary purpose of a firewall is to enforce a security policy stating who can communicate, with whom and in what way. The firewall accomplishes this task by examining the traffic that passes through it, comparing each packet against a set of rules programmed into it. It makes a decision based on factors such as sender address, destination address, protocol and ports. This allows businesses to use less secure applications on the protected networks and prevent all outsiders from ever gaining access to these services.

Most firewalls, including D-Link firewalls, ensure that network traffic complies with current protocol definitions. This can prevent poorly implemented services on the protected servers and client software from being exposed to unexpected data, causing them to hang or crash. In short, a firewall is the network’s answer to poor host security.
