Network Security and Cyber Security: A Review

Abstract

Abstract: Secure Network has now become a need of any organization. The security threats are increasing day by day and making high speed wired/wireless network and internet services, insecure and unreliable. Now – a - days security measures works more importantly towards fulfilling the cutting edge demands of today’s growing industries. The need is also induced in to the areas like defense, where secure and authenticated access of resources are the key issues related to information security. In this paper Author has described the important measures and parameters regarding large industry/organizational requirements for establishing a secure network. Wi-Fi networks are very common in providing wireless network access to different resources and connecting various devices wirelessly. There are need of different requirements to handle Wi-Fi threats and network hacking attempts. This paper explores important security measures related to different network scenarios, so that a fully secured network environment could be established in an organization. Author also has discussed a case study to illustrate the minimal set of measures required for establishing network security in any organization. We will be analyzing a variety of cyber-attacks and different security methods. We aspire to create research into the subject area. This paper explores how cybercrime has become a serious threat in our lives and we are going to look at a few of the different security methods that are being used in this arena and their various weaknesses.
