Introduction
Network security plays a vital role in preserving privacy and
confidentiality in the digital age. The amount of personal and sensitive
information transmitted over networks is staggering, ranging from
financial data to medical records and intellectual property. Without
robust network security measures, individuals and organizations are at
risk of data breaches, which can have severe consequences, including
identity theft, financial loss, and damage to reputation. Ensuring the
privacy and confidentiality of data is a fundamental responsibility of
network security professionals.
Perimeter Security Components:

1.Firewalls

2.Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS)

3.Intrusion Prevention Systems (IPS)

4.Virtual Private Networks (VPNs)

5.Demilitarized Zone (DMZ)

6.Application Layer Gateways (ALGs)


Network segmentation
Network segmentation involves dividing a large computer network into
smaller, isolated subnetworks. This practice enhances security by
reducing the attack surface and containing the impact of potential
security breaches. Each segment operates independently and has its
own access rules, allowing for more effective access control and
compliance with regulatory requirements. Network segmentation also
improves network performance and isolates vulnerable systems or IoT
devices, contributing to a stronger overall network security strategy.
Access Control and Authentication
1.User Authorization
2.Role-Based Access Control (RBAC)
3.Least Privilege
4.Access Control Lists (ACLs)
• Authentication:
➢Something the user knows (e.g., password, PIN)
➢Something the user has (e.g., smart card, security token)
➢Something the user is (e.g., biometric data like fingerprint or facial
recognition)
➢Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)
Functions of Endpoint Security:
1.Malware Protection
2.Firewall Protection
3.Intrusion Detection and Prevention
4.Data Loss Prevention (DLP)
5.Device Encryption
6.Patch Management
7.Application Control
8.Web Protection
9.Behavioral Analysis
10.Incident Response and Remediation
