Firewalls
Why Firewalls Are Essential for Every Business in Kenya
As digital threats continue to evolve, businesses in Kenya face increasing risks of data breaches, ransomware, and unauthorized access. Firewalls are a foundational component of network security—serving as the first line of defense between your internal systems and the internet. At Victorock Kenya, we specialize in delivering enterprise-grade firewall solutions tailored to meet the security needs of businesses, schools, healthcare providers, and government institutions across East Africa.
What Is a Firewall?
A firewall is a network security device or software that monitors and controls incoming and outgoing traffic based on predefined rules. It acts as a barrier between a trusted internal network and untrusted external networks like the internet, helping prevent cyberattacks and data leaks.
Types of Firewalls
- Hardware Firewalls: Physical devices installed between your network and gateway. Ideal for businesses needing robust, centralized protection.
- Software Firewalls: Installed on individual devices to protect them from local threats. Useful for remote workers and personal computers.
- Next-Generation Firewalls (NGFW): Combine traditional firewall protection with advanced features like intrusion prevention, application awareness, and deep packet inspection.
- Cloud-Based Firewalls: Designed for organizations with cloud infrastructure. Scalable and ideal for hybrid networks.
Benefits of Using a Firewall
- Protects Against Unauthorized Access
- Prevents Malware and Virus Infiltration
- Controls Internet Usage Within the Organization
- Supports VPNs for Secure Remote Access
- Ensures Compliance with Data Protection Regulations
