Technology article- A new tool to stop cybercrime

    The new generation on firewalls coming out is supposedly safer. Old firewalls just protected against unsafe data, while on this new firewall they search every application going into major corporations to stop hackers. People may be aloud to use Facebook now at work, just as long as they don't download games. the firewall is predicted to stop the crimes by 35% and save the u.s. 6.8 billion dollars by the year 2014. This new tool will only work though if the people using it use it correctly and faithfully. If they enter sites after the warning pops up telling them not to the firewall cant do anything about it. Therefor it is in he companies hands after downloading it to keep their company safe from viruses and hackers.
