Firewalls Questions
The role of firewalls in protecting against phishing and email-based attacks is to monitor and control the incoming and outgoing network traffic. Firewalls analyze the content and source of emails and other network traffic to identify and block suspicious or malicious activities. They can detect phishing attempts by examining the email content, checking for suspicious links or attachments, and comparing the sender's information with known phishing sources. Firewalls also help prevent email-based attacks by filtering out spam, blocking unauthorized access to email servers, and enforcing security policies to ensure that only legitimate and safe emails are allowed through.
