README
- A firewall is a network security system that **monitors and controls incoming and outgoing network traffic** based on a set of predefined security rules.
- The primary goal of a firewall is to protect a network and its devices from **unauthorized access, attacks, and data breaches**.
- Firewalls can be implemented as hardware or software solutions, and they can be configured to filter traffic based on a variety of criteria, such as IP addresses, protocols, and ports.
- Firewalls can also be used to **block specific types of traffic**, such as peer-to-peer file sharing or instant messaging applications.
- There are several types of firewalls, including packet-filtering firewalls, stateful inspection firewalls, application-level gateways, and next-generation firewalls.
