Are you talking about physical filters - like those for air or electricity, or filters that block unwanted software or other web-sourced items or code that might cause harm to that device? There are also filters that PREVENT a user or that particular machine from accessing particular connections, like parental controls that lock out of certain channels on a TV or websites on a computer.

All types are meant to prevent something unwanted or nasty for coming in contact with the device in question.
