Firewall is a system designed to prevent unauthorized access to or from a private network. You can implement a firewall in either hardware or software form All messages entering or leaving the intranet (i.e., the local network to which you are connected) must pass through the firewall.
Note: In protecting private information, a firewall is considered a first line of defence; it cannot, however, be considered the only such line. Firewalls are generally designed to protect network traffic and connections, and therefore do not attempt to authenticate individual users when determining who can access a particular computer or network.
