Traditional Firewalls are essential components of network security that monitor, filter, and control incoming and outgoing network traffic based on predetermined security rules. They act as a barrier between trusted internal networks and untrusted external networks, such as the internet.

Next-Generation Firewalls (NGFWs) are advanced network security devices that provide enhanced protection beyond traditional firewalls. Key features of NGFWs include:

• Deep Packet Inspection
• Application Awareness and Control
• Integrated Intrusion Prevention System (IPS)
• Threat Intelligence Integration
• User Identity Awareness
• TLS/SSL Inspection
• Advanced Malware Detection:

AI-based firewalls represent a significant advancement in network security, combining the capabilities of traditional next-generation firewalls (NGFWs) with artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies. These advanced firewalls offer several key benefits such as:

• Enhanced Threat Detection
• Proactive Defense
• Automated Response
• Continuous Learning
• Advanced Capabilities
