What is Network Security?

 Protection of the underlying networking infrastructure from


unauthorize access.
 Activity designed to protect the usability and integrity of your
network and data.
 Includes both hardware and software technologies.
 Targets a variety of threats.
 Stops them from entering or spreading on your network.
How does network security work?

 Network security combines multiple layers of defenses at the edge


and in the network.
 Each network security layer implements policies and controls.
 Authorized users gain access to network resources, but malicious
actors are blocked from carrying out exploits and threats.
 It involves implementing both hardware and software mechanisms
to protect the network and infrastructure from unauthorized access
Types of Network Security:
There are three types of network security:
Types of Network Security:
 It involves preventing unauthorized employees from gaining control of the network's
secrecy. External accessories and routers that may be utilized for cable connections
are examples of this. Biometric systems, for example, may do the same thing.
Physical security is crucial, especially for small businesses that may not have as
many resources to spend on security staff and systems as bigger corporations.
 It mostly focuses on safeguarding data either kept in the network or engaged in
network transitions. This kind fulfills two functions. One is a defense against
unauthorized users, while the other is against malevolent actions.
 This network security degree safeguards user behavior, such as how permission is
authorized and the process works. This also assures the complexity required to
safeguard the network from threats. This level also identifies infrastructural
modifications that are required.
Network Security Attacks:

Active Attack
Network Security Attacks:
Passive Attack
Methods/Tools for Network Security:
 Firewall
 VPN (virtual private network)
 IPS (intrusion prevention system)
 Behavioral Analytics
 Access Control
 Application Security
 IDS (intrusion detection system)
 Honeypots
 Network segmentation
 Email security
 Data loss prevention
 Wireless security
How do I benefit from network security?

Digitization has transformed our world. How we live, work, play,


and learn have all changed. Every organization that wants to
deliver the services that customers and employees demand must
protect its network. Network security also helps you protect
proprietary information from attack. Ultimately it protects your
reputation.
