Firewall Configuration

Firewalls provide protection against outside cyber attackers by shielding your computer or network from malicious or unnecessary network traffic. Firewalls can also prevent malicious software from accessing a computer or network via the Internet. The SMPH Network and Cybersecurity group can assist your department with firewall configuration to protect our faculty, staff, and students.
