What is a firewall?

How does Prisma Firewall function?
Prisma Firewall actions as a filter which examines at the first level over the network board every data package coming from outside (whether the local or external networks) to determine if the access will or won't be allowed, before the information to be analyzed.
Why does Prisma Firewall protect us?
The rapid evolution of local and global networks enlarged the risk of computer exposure to Internet aggressions. The attacks can take the forms of intruders (hackers, viruses, worms) which can affect the information, data or documents stocked in computer.
There are two solutions to protect data: not using the Internet and the computer networks or using the firewall programs. These programs protect information from the computer by blocking the access of the dangers coming from the outside.
The most important dangers which can affect the data from PC:
There are applications which can access your computer, using web-technologies (for example, ActiveX and Java Applets) which can transfer personal information to another PC or they can erase them effectively.
Other PC from the network can access directly personal information using some Windows options like NetBIOS, FTP, HTTP.
By means of accessed Internet pages or even from your own network, you can attract cookies or programs which can extract personal information from PC.
Some confidential personal data (like banking information, address, phone number, email address or password) can be disclosed by filling in online application forms from several sites.
Spyware or Trojan Horses applications can hack into your PC which can erase, steal confidential information or can transform your computer in a zombie which will attack other computers.
Thus, for preserving the confidential and the integrity of the data in private computers or company computers, every person or company needs a firewall. Unfortunately, most of these software programs are made with complex interface and design, useful for experienced users in administrating computer networks.
Created and developed especially for home users and small business users, Prisma Firewall is easy to install, to learns and use, offering the following advantages: filtering network traffic, allowing the access of only required information; the blocking of attacks; offering stealth protection for the user on the Internet, so that it can't be detected and attacked; the control of the applications network access; sending messages and alert signals when the computer is being attacked. |
