Internet access has been a crucial element for the efficient operation and development of any business for a long time. However, there are significant security challenges related to internet usage. Firewalls have been used as the first line of network protection against attacks for a long time. They perform the function of a barrier between protected network segments and insecure external networks, for example, the internet. These devices analyze traffic based on a set of rules and make decisions on whether traffic can be forwarded inside the network further. Next-generation firewalls also support built-in deep packet inspection (DPI), intrusion protection systems (IPS), and traffic inspection on the application level (Web Application Firewall).
