Network Security

Definition

Network security refers to the practices and technologies implemented to protect a computer network from unauthorized access, misuse, modification, or denial of service. It ensures the integrity, confidentiality, and availability of network resources and data. Robust network security is paramount for any digital system, including those supporting digital assets. This involves a combination of hardware, software, and procedural safeguards.
