Firewall rules are the basic security controls that protect your computer networks from unauthorized access. There are four basic types of firewall rules: intrusion prevention, access control, traffic shaping, and application layer security.

Intrusion prevention rules identify and block unauthorized access attempts. These rules can be used to prevent unauthorized users from gaining access to your computer networks or systems.

Access control rules determine who is authorized to access your computer networks and systems. These rules can be used to control who can access your files, systems, and networks.

Traffic shaping rules limit the amount of traffic that can be sent and received by your computer networks. This can help protect your networks from being overloaded and slowed down.

Application layer security (AL2S) rules protect your computer networks and systems from malicious attacks. These rules can be used to protect your systems from viruses, spyware, and other malware.
