What is network firewalls?

Network firewalls are security systems that monitor and control incoming and outgoing network traffic based on predetermined security rules. They act as a barrier between a trusted internal network and an untrusted external network, such as the internet. Firewalls are commonly used to protect networks from unauthorized access, malware, and other security threats by blocking or allowing specific network traffic based on source, destination, port, and protocol.
