If you want to know why you might need a firewall in your business, think about drinking water.
Water?
Yes, we could drink out of the river. It's water, isn't it? But it might not be clean. We might get a stomach ache.
This is a bit like not having a firewall at all.
Or we could drink out of the tap at home. That's much better. The water has been cleaned.
This is a little bit like using a Draytek firewall or a BT/Sky Home Hub.
So why do so many people spend money on water filters?
They put the clean tap water into a water filter and then drink the filtered water.
They do that so more of the bad stuff will be filtered out. The water is the cleanest it can be.
This is a bit like having a firewall with a monthly security subscription, like a WatchGuard.
It offers more protection.
But whatever you do, don't go drinking out of the river.
