Selected Answer: B
A host-based firewall is designed to control inbound and outbound traffic to and from a device (such as a computer or server). It provides a barrier by filtering network traffic based on a set of predefined security rules, effectively blocking unwanted or insecure communications. It can prevent malicious network traffic from reaching the device, which helps protect it from various network-based attacks
