It has a built in hardware firewall (not too sure what that means though
)
It also has something called 128 bit wep encryption (so any other pc's connecting to it must have the same 'key') and you can also set it up to only allow certain wireless cards to connect to it.
It can also be set to deny access to certain sites (parental controls) and you can also block individual ports or port forward to 'nowhere' if you want to 'stealth' a port.

A true firewall secures your network against hackers: Stateful Packet Inspection (SPI) and Denial of Service (Dos) attack prevention averts potential threats by scanning incoming traffic and Network Address translation (NAT) shields your networked devices from intruders. Powerful WEP encryption (40/64- or 128-bit) on the wireless LAN conceals your information from eavesdroppers. MAC Address Control prevents unauthorized access to your wireless network. VPN pass-through give secure Internet access to your office or corporate network.
Parents are able to limit web access by blocking offensive content and URL addresses, and the router sends real-time email alerts and logs of all network web activity. Comprehensive anti-virus protection ensures safety for your networked computers.
