Firewall is a network security system which monitors and control outgoing and incoming local or internet traffic on your computer. It follows a set of predefined rules to keep your computer safe. Because of firewall monitoring, it is assumed that the connection to internet is secure. Well, that’s 99% true. The remaining 1% is your common sense which can prevent any hacking attack on your computer. A firewall and your common sense combines makes 100% security.

Using Linux or Mac, you may not need firewall. But to protect your Windows computer from intruders, you must have firewall. Here I have put a small list of working firewalls. These firewall support Windows 11, Windows 10, Windows 8.1, Windows 8, and Windows 7.
