Firewall
A firewall is a combination hardware and software buffer that many companies put in place between their internal networks and the Internet. A firewall allows only specific kinds of messages from the Internet to flow in and out of the internal network. This protects the internal network from intruders and/or prevents hackers from breaking into the systems.
