Answer»

The CORRECT answer is (d) APPLICATION layer

For explanation: The application firewall is typically built to control all network traffic on any layer up to the application layer. It is able to control APPLICATIONS or services specifically, unlike a stateful network firewall, which is – WITHOUT additional software – unable to control network traffic regarding a specific application. There are two PRIMARY categories of application firewalls, network-based application firewalls and host-based application firewalls.
