Two protocols are dominant today for providing
security at the transport layer: the Secure Sockets
Layer (SSL) Protocol and the Transport Layer
Security (TLS) Protocol. The latter is actually an
IETF version of the former.

324FIREWALLS
All previous security measures cannot prevent Eve
from sending a harmful message to a system. To
control access to a system, we need firewalls. A firewall
is a device installed between the internal network of an
organization and the rest of the Internet. It is designed
to forward some packets and filter (not forward)
others.
