QTNA: Firewall Types

In CyberVista’s Questions That Need Answers (QTNA) video series, we tackle some of the most testable and important cybersecurity questions on a weekly basis. This week we’re covering a question related to types of firewalls. Here we go…

• Port 80 monitored by stateless firewall
• Port 443 monitored by application firewall
• Port 80 monitored by stateful firewall
• Port 80 monitored by proxy firewall
