With technology advances, the capabilities and capacities of business networks are expanding at a rapid rate to serve more and more data, but in the meantime, such networks are always at high risk of compromising data security. For this, the installation and implementation of a network security system are essential. Hence,in this paper, the author introduces a network security system composed of a PFSense firewall that has been ruled by a Zeek IDS. This article, along with its different sections, introduces various approaches to deploying this security system and also shows how it differs from other security systems.
