防火墙

• 拼音: fáng huǒ qiáng
• 汉字拆解: 防 = 阝+ 方 (protective earthwork); 火 = 火 (flame — fire); 墙 = 土 + 啬 (earth and enclosure — an enclosing wall)

含义

Firewall. In computing, a network security system that monitors and controls traffic based on predetermined rules; in construction, a fire-resistant wall designed to prevent the spread of flames.

The computing sense now dominates modern usage. Used extensively in IT, cybersecurity, and network administration. Can also be used metaphorically to describe institutional or legal barriers that prevent undesired flows of information or influence.
