Guide to building a secure Network architecture with layered defense, segmentation, monitoring, and continuous updates. Optimize your network’s defense.
Introduction
Network security is an ever-evolving discipline due to the dynamic nature of threats and vulnerabilities. A secure network architecture is not just about implementing the latest security tools but also about designing the infrastructure with defense at its core. Here’s how you can build a robust, defense-focused network:
1. Layered Defense (Defense in Depth):
Instead of relying on a single security measure, employ multiple layers of defense. This ensures that even if one layer is compromised, others can still provide protection. A multi-layered approach may include:
- Perimeter Security: Firewalls, intrusion prevention systems (IPS), and border routers.
- Internal Network Security: Network segmentation, internal firewalls, and network access control (NAC).
- Host-Level Security: Antivirus, host-based intrusion prevention systems (HIPS), and application whitelisting.
- Application Security: Secure coding practices, web application
