What is a Firewall?

20.png

We have all heard the term, but do you know what it is? A firewall is an in-network security device that bridges the connection from the internet to your devices and users. This device monitors incoming and outgoing traffic, acting as a barrier by permitting or blocking data based on security paraments and settings. When set up and managed correctly, these devices can effectively block intrusions and malicious traffic like viruses and hackers.

Firewalls are NOT plug-n-play!

As we just described, firewalls keep you and your business safe from malicious attacks based on security parameters and patches. Without the proper configurations and ongoing upkeep, these devices lose their effectiveness. In 2021, our security team completed over 5,200 assessments and they uncovered that over 92% of firewalls were completely misconfigured and with expired licenses, deeming them less than suitable. These devices require a significant level of expertise and monitoring to maintain their effectiveness.
