First published in 1994, the book Firewalls and Internet Security: Repelling the Wily Hacker by William R. Cheswick and Steve Bellovin helped define the concept of a network firewall. Describing in detail one of the first major firewall deployments at AT&T, the book exerted a profound influence on the formation of the perimeter security model, which became the dominant network security architecture in the mid-1990s.
