| [POLL] Personal Firewalls - 2008 Member Choice A personal firewall is a software application used to protect a single Internet connected computer from intruders or in some cases also control applications from connecting to the internet. It should also be noted that many people use both personal and network firewalls as a layered form of security. A network firewall can either be protecting your entire network or an individual computer from incoming or both incoming and outgoing connection to the internet. For many of us this is our router or NAT modem.
Interesting reading about both types of firewalls can be found on Wikipedia here for network firewalls and here for personal firewalls.
Once again it's time to cast your vote for your favorite firewall setup. This poll will be used to determine what firewalls the members here prefer and provide a resource to find information on a variety of firewall solutions. So on with the poll and thanks in advance for your participation.
If you chose Other or if your favorite is missing, please let us know and provide a link. As always, your comments are greatly appreciated and will help others to decide what solution is best for them. | |
