4.5.3 Personal firewall

Personal firewall is a software with a set of rules that allows and denies network traffic
through a computer. It also monitors/controls applications to protect them against trojans and
keyloggers. Primary use is to enhance security when a VPN client is used. The personal
firewall controls access into the PC. When your laptop is used in unsecure networks, the
protection level should be conficured to be very high. In fact all connection attempts to your
machine should be denied. When the firewall engine detects an intrusion, it commands the
software to block the hacker's IP address. Since the firewall controls transmission at the
network TCP/IP stack level, hackers cannot circumnavigate a block in the firewall. This kind
of protection should always be active, regardless of location.
