Detailed explanation-1: -A Firewall is a network security device that monitors and filters incoming and outgoing network traffic based on an organization’s previously established security policies. At its most basic, a firewall is essentially the barrier that sits between a private internal network and the public Internet.
Detailed explanation-2: -Wide Area Network (WAN)-Similar to a MAN, a WAN can connect devices across a larger geographical area but is typically maintained by multiple administrators rather than a single entity. A WAN can also interconnect smaller LANs and are typically used across multiple branches of the same company.
