A firewall is a security system that monitors and controls incoming and outgoing network traffic based on an organization's previously established security policies. It acts as a barrier between a trusted, secure internal network and another outside network, such as the internet, that is assumed not to be secure or trusted. In contrast, an intranet is a private network accessible only to an organization's staff, and an extranet is a private network that allows access to specific external parties, such as customers or vendors. "Castlewall" is not a recognized term in the context of cybersecurity.
