How a Modern Firewall Supports Your Network Security

How a Modern Firewall Supports Your Network Security

A lot goes into a successful network security strategy, and when there isn’t a clear head honcho at the top of the chain of command (from a network security standpoint, anyway), things can get a little murky. The security that comes from a modern firewall, however, is vital, and all businesses should strive to implement it. Here are the four key elements of a modern cybersecurity strategy and how a modern firewall contributes to the digital security of your business.

The Firewall Itself

The best protection you can provide for your business is to keep threats out rather than address them after they’re in. A firewall is your first line of defense against incoming threats, as it analyzes traffic to and from your network looking for potential issues. Again, you need a firewall, especially today, as the caliber of cybersecurity threats out there has dramatically increased over the past decade.

Antivirus Solutions

You want to keep threats out, but on the off-chance something sneaks by your defenses, whether due to a vulnerability or a crafty phishing attack, you want to have systems in place to address them. These systems should be able to quarantine and eliminate threats as they are discovered. Remember, the faster you address a threat, the better, as they could cause untold harm if left unchecked.

Spam Blocking

Spam can lead to wasted time and dangers in your inbox if left unchecked. Most threats that target your business would be flagged as spam, so make sure you’re keeping your inbox tidy as you remain vigilant. Spam protection is pretty great at eliminating most dangerous messages before your team even has a chance to do anything with them, so it’s a win-win on both the security and productivity fronts.

Content Filtering

Web content can be… well, you know. Sometimes it can be wasteful, sometimes it can be unprofessional, and sometimes it can be flat-out dangerous. Content filtering helps your business regulate this content to keep your team safe and on task. It does this through whitelisting and blacklisting apps and specific websites on a per-user level, which gives your business powerful tools to keep it safe without impeding operations.
