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.
