I vaguely recall something about different types of firewalls, but I don't remember what a "black firewall" is. Is that even a real term?

Hmm, I'm a little unsure about this one. I know firewalls are important for network security, but I can't quite remember if they are considered a necessity these days. I'll have to think this through carefully.
