Firewall

A protective security system that monitors and filters incoming and outgoing traffic, safeguarding hosting servers against malware, hacking, and unauthorized access.

A firewall acts as your server's first line of defence. It monitors traffic coming in and out, blocking anything suspicious or potentially harmful. Firewalls protect against hacking attempts, malware, and unauthorised access. Hosting providers usually include them as part of their security infrastructure, but you can also install your own for extra protection. A properly configured firewall can stop most common attacks before they even reach your site. It's a simple but powerful way to safeguard your online presence and keep your data, users, and reputation safe from digital threats.
