Packet filtering firewalls are usually configured to examine incoming traffic. describe why a packet filtering firewall may be configured to also inspect outgoing traffic for a company network.

Packet filtering is the process of filtering incoming and /or outgoing data packets on an network interface. Incoming traffic filtering passes or blocks packets that enter the network, while outgoing traffic filtering controls the traffic that leaves the network. A packet filtering firewall may be configured to also inspect outgoing traffic for a company network in order to limit what an attacker can do once they've compromised  the network.
