The Firewall
A firewall is an online security measure to protect your computer from viruses and other malicious attacks.
You can use the internet to communicate with around 4.9 billion people worldwide.

To stop this from happening, a firewall controls the data flowing between your computer and the internet. A firewall inspects data to make sure it has the right permissions. If it does, it can pass through.
