Hackers can slow or block access to your critical data and applications.
Advanced Firewalling
Keep malicious activity from reaching your organization’s networks.
The Barrier Between Your Business and Bad Actors
Firewalls are the barriers between your organization’s internal networks and the greater internet. They determine who or what is allowed to enter — essentially traffic cops that either block or wave through incoming and outgoing traffic.
Beyond security, firewalls safeguard sensitive data to assist in compliance and regulatory requirements. They also help ensure critical applications have the necessary bandwidth to function by preventing resource-intensive tasks from overwhelming your network.
There are three main components of firewalls. Packet inspection examines data packets when they arrive, rule evaluation compares packets against a set of rules, and logging of packet information for monitors and analyzes network activity.
Why Firewalls Matter
Your organization’s networks are not inherently secure. Without safeguards like firewalls, any application or individual that can access your networks is free to run rampant.
