Securing Network Perimeter with Gateway Firewall

The use of NGTW – Next-Generation Firewall prevents unauthorised access to or from the private network. It will protect the network from external threats and vulnerabilities for IT infrastructure security. A separate firewall device integrates with the broadband router for increased protection. The stateful inspection feature of the firewalls offers end-to-end security and works alongside packet filtering by keeping the TCP session active. On the other hand, a host firewall software installed on the Endpoint device protects the computer or laptop from being attacked over the internet by hackers, acts as a last line of defence to protect from viruses, and scans incoming emails and attachments.
