Zone-Based Firewall

A Zone-Based Firewall is a security system that organizes a network into different segments or "zones," each with its own trust level. It controls data traffic between these zones by setting rules about what can enter or leave each area. For example, your trusted internal network might be a secure zone, while the internet is less trusted. The firewall monitors and filters traffic between these zones to prevent unauthorized access, helping protect sensitive information and maintain network security. It provides a flexible way to manage security policies based on the different parts of a network.
