Abstract:
Security is a very difficult topic. Everyone has a different idea of what ``security'' is, and what levels of risk are acceptable. Network security describes the policies and procedures implemented by a network administrator to avoid and keep track of unauthorized access, exploitation, modification, or denial of the network and network resources. Security implemented in a network helps protect users' data; it reduces the risk of legal action from data theft. This paper presents the methods used for having a secure network, how you can secure your network.
