In blog, Cyber Security for Small Businesses

A firewall is a program that filters everything that comes through your internet connection. Firewalls flag suspicious content and block it from getting into your computer system or private network. You can install firewalls in the form of either firewall software or hardware, though many companies use both to provide the best possible protection.

Why Your Colorado Business Should use Firewall Protection

Companies depend on firewalls to aid their network in several ways. By limiting which users and content are allowed through your network, firewalls increase network security overall. Additionally, some firewalls include virtual private network (VPN) servers, which can keep you protected while you’re working in open WiFi networks. Not only do firewalls prevent malicious data from entering your network, but they also keep you from traveling to malicious websites as well.
