What Are Gateways and Firewalls?

Share This Webinar

Gateways and firewalls are critical components in managing network traffic. Gateways serve as the entry and exit points, directing packets between different networks and ensuring they reach their intended destinations. Firewalls, on the other hand, play a vital role in securing the network by enforcing specific rules that control which traffic is allowed or blocked. Together, they ensure efficient data routing while safeguarding the network from unauthorized access and potential threats, creating a robust framework for network security and traffic management.
