WHAT IS THE NETWORK SECURITY ?

Image result for NETWORK SECURITY
Network Security has the greatest of taking the necessary measures in protect different assets of the organization from various security threats within the infrastructure. Network security also ensures that there are enough security policies and procedures defined in order to safeguard various critical assets of the organization. Network Security defines various processes within the organization in order to assess, identify and remove various security threats within the organization. It is protect the underlying networking infrastructure from unauthorized access, misuse, malfunction, modification, destruction, or improper disclosure, thereby creating a secure platform for computers, users and programs to perform on the system.
An unauthorized user is not allowed to access the critical resources of the organisation as it is secured by defining a perimeter of a secured network. The secured perimeter of the network is called as De-Militarized Zone (DMZ). DMZ provides a security layer which acts as a defense in securing the network from various external threats. The secured network will ensure that all the data transactions of the confidential information are secured between different client and server systems within the network. There are various servers and clients connected to each other on the network. Various security tools and software`s is installed on the network in order to protect the servers and clients from various network attacks. Server, clients and applications installed on the systems is considered to be critical resources of the network.

Cloud Computing architecture

Cloud computing architecture refers to all components and sub-components that together form the structure of the cloud computing system. This architecture can be divided into three parts for better understanding – front end, back end and middleware. Each part of the cloud architecture has its own set of functionalities and protocols that work together to deliver on-demand services to user-facing hardware as well as software. In general, the architecture is evolved out of large distributed network applications over the last two decades. Hence it supports any system where resources can be pooled and partitioned as required. The general cloud architecture is capable of running multiple software applications running on multiple virtual hardware in multiple locations to efficiently render on-demand services to the users. The users could be using these software applications from their desktop or laptop or mobile or tablets. Usually, whatever the user is looking at – through t...

connection oriented

connection-oriented:- connection-oriented  describes a means of transmitting data in which the devices at the end points use a preliminary  protocol  to establish an end-to-end connection before any data is sent. Connection-oriented protocol service is sometimes called a "reliable" network service, because it guarantees that data will arrive in the proper sequence. Transmission Control Protocol ( TCP ) is a connection-oriented protocol. For connection-oriented communications, each end point must be able to transmit so that it can communicate. The alternative to connection-oriented transmission is the  connection-less  approach, in which data is sent from one end point to another without prior arrangement. Connection-less protocols are usually described as  stateless  because the end points have no protocol-defined way to remember where they are in a "conversation" of message exchanges. Because they can keep track of a conversation, connection-or...

What is a Linux Distribution?

A Linux distribution is an installable operating system constructed from a Linux kernel and supporting user programs and libraries. A complete Linux operating system isn't developed by a single organization, but by a collection of independent open source development communities working with individual software components. A distribution provides an easy way for users to install and manage a working Linux system. In 1991, a young computer science student named Linus Torvalds developed a Unix-like kernel he named Linux , licensed as open source software under the GPL. The kernel is the core component of the operating system, which manages hardware, memory, and scheduling of running programs. This Linux kernel could then be supplemented with other open source software, such as the utilities and programs from the GNU Project, the graphical interface from MIT's X Window System, and many other open source components su...
