Networks remain becoming more susceptible to attack from both the outside besides the inside due to the obvious increasing complexity of networks besides the need to make them more available as a due to growing importance besides appeal of the Internet as a medium of commercial transactions. Mechanisms and methods for securing internal networks in contradiction of these assaults are being explored. One of the safeguards that is being seriously considered is the firewall. A firewall remains a computer, router, or other form or communication equipment that controls admittance to the network. A firewall to protect a network's access points, making it more secure. Despite the criticisms levelled at them and the development trends that threaten them, firewalls remain to be more complex by the day, to new features being introduced all the time. As a result, firewalls remain a strong defensive mechanism, despite the criticisms levelled at them and the development trends that threaten them. An overview of firewall technology is provided in this article.
