43. Which of the following statements about
firewall (in the context of conmputing) Is
INCORRECT?
(a) It permits network transmisslon based on a
set of rules.
(b) is a combination of both software and
hardware devices.
(c) It is frequ ently Used to protect a computer
network from unauthorized.
(d) It is unable to permit legitimate
communication to pass.
Sol. (d). In computing. a firewall is a ngtwork
security system that monitors and controls
incoming and outgoing network traffic based oi
predetermined security rüles. It establishes a
barrier between a trusted network and an
untrusted network. Firewalls are taregorized as
a network-based or a host-based system.
Network-bas ed firewalls can be positioned
anywhere within a LAN or WAN. They are either
a software appliance running on general
purpose hardware, a hardwareappliance
running on specal-purpose hardware or a
virtual appliance running on a virtual host.
Host-based firewalls are deployed directly on
the host itself to control network traffic or
other computing resources.
