Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A firewall is a type of hardware or software that acts as a barrier between a computer or a server and any external network traffic. It inspects data being transmitted to or from the network and either allows or blocks specific traffic based on preconfigured rules. Firewalls can help protect against unauthorized access, malware, and other types of cyber attacks. Ethernet, protocol, and rootkit do not provide the same level of protection as a firewall.
