Sažetak

Being the most critical area of computer technology, security assumes growing importance in today’s computer systems environment. This paper presents working principles of “firewall”, a device that enables different methods of control and management of data traffic between two computer networks, with the purpose of protecting private network security from public network security risks. Basic “firewall” functions are presented and devised: packet filtering, network address masking, proxy service and virtual private network. Main roles of the basic “firewall” functions are explained and advantages and disadvantages of their use are examined. This paper provides guidelines for protecting computer systems privacy.
