Firewalls – Stateful Inspection

stateful inspection
- close off ports until connection to the specific port is requested
- firewall architecture that works at the network layer. Unlike static packet filtering, which examines a packet based on the information in its header, stateful inspection tracks each connection traversing all interfaces of the firewall and makes sure they are valid.
