Description
The firewall monitors the network for known vulnerabilities and malicious software, such as Trojan horses, hacker tools, DDoS agents, and spyware. Many of these vulnerabilities may not be detected by anti-virus software or host-based intrusion detection systems. Unauthorized software may contain malware or malicious code which may be exploited by an attacker to gain access.
