The new trend of the native Firewall network security Defense Network surfing

In the face of the constantly "updated" virus and attack technology, do you not want to understand the new security technology, equipped with new security products to protect their love machines, confidential information? Do not worry, "security rookie" will introduce you to the latest security technology, information, the latest security products, so that you always walk in the forefront of security.

For individual users, mainly rely on the operating system based software network firewall (such as Skynet, rising, etc.) to protect their own system security, from hackers and viruses attack. However, there are many unsatisfactory places in this traditional way of security defense (such as excessive system resources, slow system speed, unsatisfactory effect, etc.). Recently, NVIDIA has launched the Nvidia native firewall built into the motherboard chip, breaking the traditional personal network security defense method.

Nvidia native Firewall

The "Hardware" firewall described in this article is not an expensive hardware-level network firewall deployed in the corporate network, but a network firewall integrated into the motherboard chip for individual users. Nvidia's "NForce3 Ultra MCP" motherboard chipset, with Nvidia's unique single chip design, has built-in hardware-level network firewall capabilities and gigabit NIC.

The chipset uses network, security, large-capacity storage integration architecture, not only reduces the burden on the CPU, improve operating system performance, but also provides hardware-level network security protection, without the installation of Third-party software Network firewall, can enable individual users to protect against viruses and hackers, security protection effect is more ideal.

How to protect system security

The traditional personal software network firewall is based on the operating system to analyze Network Layer Communication Protocol (TCP and UDP) and access port mode to control network communication data information. This approach not only consumes a lot of system resources, slows down the system, and it is less capable of defending against viruses and hackers, and many hacker attacks can easily cause personal network firewalls to fail.

Nvidia native firewall is different from the traditional personal network firewall, it is embedded in the motherboard's gigabit Nic Mac (media access control sub-layer), based on the existing network communication protocols, from the bottom of the network to strictly filter the communication data.

It also provides protection against IP spoofing, network eavesdropping, fragment storage attacks, and other functions to protect against hacker and virus attacks and secure the system.

Nvidia original firewall broke the original Personal network security defense pattern, creating a new security precautions, for individual users, it is a worthy of expectation of products. (Huai River sailor)
