A firewall is a piece of hardware, software, or both that is used to protect a business against disruption by outcasts. It controls the flow of traffic through a switch connected to the organizational structure. Organizations are becoming more vulnerable to attacks as a result of their rising complexity and the necessity to make them more transparent due to the growing emphasis and popularity of the web as a method of trade.
