<prompt> Hlalosa hore na ke hobaneng ha firewall e le ea bohlokoa bakeng sa tsireletso ea marang-rang.nan  <response>: Instruction in English: Explain why a firewall is important for network security. . Response in English: A firewall is an important component of network security because it acts as a barrier between your computer or network and the internet, and helps protect against unauthorized access and malicious traffic. Firewalls monitor and control incoming and outgoing network traffic based on predetermined security rules. Having a firewall in place can help prevent cyber attacks and unauthorized access to sensitive information by blocking potentially dangerous data from entering or leaving the network. For example, a firewall can block incoming traffic from suspicious IP addresses, block access to certain ports, and prevent outgoing traffic to known malicious websites. In addition to blocking unwanted traffic, firewalls can also log attempts to breach your network security, providing valuable information to help identify and prevent future threats. Overall, a firewall serves as a first line of defense in protecting your network and the information it contains from cyber threats. . Response in Sesotho: Firewall ke karolo ea bohlokoa ea tsireletso ea marang-rang hobane e sebetsa e le mokoallo pakeng tsa khomphuta ea hau kapa marang-rang le marang-rang, me e thusa ho sireletsa khahlanong le phihlelo e sa lumelloeng le sephethephethe se kotsi. Li-firewall li shebella le ho laola sephethephethe sa marang-rang se kenang le se tsoang ho latela melao e reriloeng esale pele ea tsireletso. Ho ba le firewall sebakeng ho ka thusa ho thibela litlhaselo tsa cyber le phihlello e sa lumelloeng ea tlhaiso-leseling e tebileng ka ho thibela data e ka bang kotsi ho kena kapa ho tsoa marang-rang. Mohlala, firewall e ka thibela sephethephethe se kenang ho tsoa ho liaterese tse belaetsang tsa IP, ea thibela batho ho kena likoung tse ling, me ea thibela sephethe-phethe se tsoang libakeng tse tsebahalang tse kotsi. Ntle le ho thibela sephethephethe se sa batleheng, li-firewall li ka boela tsa kenya liteko tsa ho senya tsireletso ea marang-rang ea hau, ho fana ka tlhahisoleseding ea bohlokoa ho thusa ho tseba le ho thibela litšokelo tse tlang. Ka kakaretso, firewall e sebetsa e le mokhoa oa pele oa tsireletso ho sireletsa marang-rang a hau le tlhahisoleseling eo e nang le eona ho tsoa litšokelong tsa cyber.
