Using firewall software

Firewalls are designed to prevent unauthorized access to a system or network. A firewall can be a software

program you install on your tablet and/or network, or it can be a solution made up of both hardware and

software.

There are two types of firewalls to consider:

●

Host-based firewalls—Software that protects only the computer it is installed on.

●

Network-based firewalls—Installed between your DSL or cable modem and your home network to

protect all the computers on the network.

When a firewall is installed on a system, all data sent to and from the system is monitored and compared

with a set of user-defined security criteria. Any data that does not meet those criteria is blocked.

NOTE: Under some circumstances a firewall can block access to Internet games, interfere with printer or

file sharing on a network, or block authorized email attachments. To permanently resolve the problem,

reconfigure the firewall. To temporarily resolve the problem, disable the firewall, perform the task that you

want to perform, and then reenable the firewall.
