A host-based firewall is a software application that runs on a computer or server and monitors incoming and outgoing network traffic. It’s designed to protect the computer or server it resides on from malicious activity, such as virus attacks, hacker intrusions, and other security threats. The firewall works by creating a barrier between the computer or server and the rest of the network or the internet. It filters out unwanted traffic and blocks malicious activity from reaching the computer or server.
