💪🏼 𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗳𝗶𝗿𝗲𝘄𝗮𝗹𝗹 = 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗯𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗿. It checks every person (data packet) at the door, blocks suspicious traffic, and makes sure only the right connections get in.

👮🏼 𝗔𝗻𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗶𝗿𝘂𝘀 𝘀𝗼𝗳𝘁𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗲 = 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗲𝗰𝘂𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝘁𝗲𝗮𝗺 𝗶𝗻𝘀𝗶𝗱𝗲. It scans the crowd and boots out anything shady that sneaks past the bouncer.

Both are necessary to keep your network safe and bumpin!
