What are the types of Network Security you should know about?
Network
security is a set of policies and requirements for the network infrastructure
of organizations to prevent and monitor unauthorized access attempts,
information modification, and possible failure of the entire computer network
and other network resources.
Network Security is a fairly general term. It implies both the limitation of
unwanted access to the network and the safety of data, as well as the effective
functioning of the computer network as a whole.
Today,
there are many risks of leakage of valuable information. For dynamically
developing business processes of an "online" nature, all aspects are
equally important that would help to minimize these risks. Watllenet
offers you modern software solutions, with the help of which network
security and confidentiality are ensured when transmitting
commercial information through the network, as well as when circulating funds
through the Internet.
The
software solutions we offer from the developer Symantec are a guarantee that
confidential information will be available only to those to whom it is
intended. This is facilitated by the characteristic features of these
software solutions - multilevel protection and ease of settings and management.
UTM
UTM
(Unified Threat Management) is a system that can handle multiple security
functions such as firewall, antivirus, and antispam at once. UTMs that can be
managed easily stop inappropriate management.
Firewall
A
firewall is software that blocks suspicious networks from the outside
based on port numbers and IP addresses. While IPS / IDS and WAF block
middleware and web applications, firewalls block attacks on networks located
outside of these.
IPS
/ IDS
IPS
/ IDS is module that verdicts unofficial access in middleware and
platforms. IDS finds and reports vulnerable movements, while IPS blocks
attacks when they are detected. Either IPS or IDS isn't the best, so it's
a good idea to choose and deploy the right one for your enterprise system.
WAF
WAF stops
non registered access and vulnerable attacks in web applications. WAF prevents
attacks that cannot be troubleshooted by firewalls and IPS / IDS. In
addition to rejecting suspicious access patterns, it can also be set to not
accept communications that are not on the whitelist.
Sandbox
A
sandbox is a system that creates a specific virtual space on a computer
and investigates suspiciously moving communications and software. If you
open a malicious file on the computer we are using, there is a risk of infection. However,
if it is inside the sandbox, it will not infect the system outside the sandbox,
so you can investigate with confidence.
Antivirus
software
Antivirus
software protects your device from cyber attacks and vulnerabilities such as
computer viruses. Computer viruses in the strict sense are treated as a
type of malware, but in the context of antivirus software, they should be
interpreted in a broad sense to protect them from attacks that could harm your
computer.
File
encryption software
File
encryption software is software that encrypts files such as
Excel and PDF so that they cannot be viewed and edited by outsiders. Even
if the file is leaked to the outside, the contents of the file cannot be
confirmed, so the situation can be resolved without leaking confidential
information.
