Antivirus:
Antivirus software is meant to identify, block, and respond to dangerous software, such as
viruses, on a computer, within an IT system. Antivirus software is a vital aspect of a
comprehensive security approach, even if you operate your computer carefully to prevent
coming into touch with a virus. Antivirus software operates in the background, checking
every file opened in a computer and comparing it to known viruses and other forms of
malware in order to assist the users avoid infecting their computer. The programme also
performs system scans to guarantee that the computers are free of viruses. If the antivirus
software detects a virus or other malware signature, it will block the file from executing and
place it in quarantine, where it will either be deleted automatically, or the user may opt to
execute it if they are convinced it, is a false detection. Any company that wants to keep its
data and computer systems from getting corrupted needs antivirus protection. Antivirus
software acts as a security guard at the entrance, stopping intruders from entering. Because
prevention is much more effective than cure, having a system in place to identify and
prevent viral assaults is preferable than having to spend time and money patching affected
equipment.
Furthermore, if a virus exposes sensitive customer data or sends unwanted emails to
the contacts in an effort to spread the infection further, the organisation image might be
jeopardised.

Firewall:
A firewall is a computer hardware or software security device that may help safeguard
the network within an IT system by filtering traffic and preventing unwanted access to
confidential data on organisations computers. A firewall not only blocks unwanted traffic,
but it may also assist prevent harmful malware from infiltrating the computers. Different
degrees of protection may be provided by firewalls. The challenge is to determine how
much protection the organisation will need. A firewall serves as a kind of gatekeeper. It
monitors efforts to obtain access to the operating system of the organisation and prevents
undesired traffic or unidentified sources. A firewall is a device that functions as a barrier or
filter between computers and external networks, such as the internet. Consider a firewall to
be a traffic controller. It helps to safeguard the organisation's network and information
inside the system by regulating network traffic. This involves restricting unsolicited incoming
network traffic and authenticating access by scanning network traffic for harmful elements
such as hackers and viruses.
A firewall is normally pre-installed with the operating system and security software. It's a
good idea to have such functionalities enabled. Checking security settings to ensure they are
set to execute updates automatically is a necessity.
