Why Use a Proxy if Firewall is Better? Understanding the Key Differences and Use Cases

18 Replies, 1629 Views

Hey Alex, firewalls and proxies are like Batman and Robin—they work best as a team.

A firewall keeps your network safe, but a proxy can help you access blocked content or hide your IP. For example, if you're traveling and need to access your bank account back home, a proxy can make it look like you're still in your home country.

Check out tools like Windscribe (proxy) and Untangle (firewall).
