Host-based firewalls are very similar to antimalware systems in that they scan files or packets coming into and out of the host system for
possible malware.
Network-based firewalls offer greater protection against malware intrusions than host-based firewalls can.
Host-based firewalls can be set to prevent applications programs from other systems from connecting to resources on the host computer,
including preventing those applications from loading and executing on the host.
O Host-based firewalls can filter, restrict, or block connection attempts by programs running on the host computer to external networks.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F1e7713e5-bc5d-45b6-9158-f2a077b22183%2F9e9e606f-b3fd-4641-b466-af20d365eacd%2Fatbwy75_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
