What is a firewall? A firewall, is a security device that filters traffic, has a customizable set of rules, and protects your data. Potentially malicious behavior, coming in like a wrecking ball, is stopped by your firewall.

At Liquid Web, we deploy two types of firewalls, both of which have that same essential function, preventing evil-doers access. With dedicated servers, we use a physical Cisco firewall. That means you can consolidate security for your entire hosting environment into a managed security device. For Storm Cloud Servers, we use a cloud-enabled firewall. Each of these firewalls are individually manageable. In either case, firewalls are important for securing your hosting environment against unauthorized third-party access. Firewall work to shut the door on evil-doers, prevent unauthorized access, and stop malicious traffic.
