Firewall-1 was the first product to offer an innovative<br />
technology to defend computer networks from<br />
penetration. The product, based on the patented Stateful<br />
Inspection technology, can recognize infiltration attempts<br />
using advanced information analysis of communication<br />
traffic. Since its launch in 1993 this technology has been<br />
the foundation for protecting computer networks and<br />
defending millions of users all over the world.<br />

Formulation of a theoretical model that enables a<br />
machine to mimic the activity of the human brain. The<br />
model revolutionized the field of artificial intelligence<br />
and enabled a machine to make decisions even<br />
when lacking all the data. The principles of the<br />
model are applied in a variety of fields, including<br />
the development of vaccines, voice recognition and<br />
automatic translation. In 2011, the researcher won<br />
the Turing Award, the most prestigious award in the<br />
field of computer science.<br />
