    Network security consists of provisions and policies to prevent unauthorized access to computer networks and resources. It involves authenticating users, typically with usernames and passwords but also with additional authentication methods like security tokens. Network security uses tools like firewalls, intrusion detection systems, and virtual private networks to protect against common network attacks such as viruses, denial of service attacks, and data theft. Proper network security is important for businesses to protect their systems and data from disruption, meet compliance requirements, and maintain their reputation.

    NETWORK SECURITY

    Presented by,
    S. RASITHA
    P. SWEATHA
    III year ECE
    INTRODUCTION:
     Network security
    consists of the
    provisions and policies
    adopted by a network
    administrator to
    prevent and monitor
    unauthorized access,
    misuse, modification,
    or denial of a computer
    network and network-
    accessible resources.
    NETWORK SECURITY CONCEPTS
    Network security starts with
    authenticating, commonly
    with a username and a
    password. i.e. the password—
    this is sometimes termed one-
    factor authentication.
    • two-factor authentication,
    something the user 'has' is
    also used (e.g. a security
    token or 'dongle', an ATM
    card, or a mobile phone)
    • *three-factor authentication,
    something the user 'is' is also
    used (e.g. a fingerprint or
    retinal scan).
    TYPES OF NETWORK SECURITY

     Wi - Fi Protected
    Access (WPA)
     Wired Equivalent
    Privacy (WEP)
     802.1X authentication

     MAC Address

     Authentication
    SECURITY MANAGEMENT
     Security management for
    networks is different for all
    kinds of situations. A home or
    small office may only require
    basic security while large
    businesses may require high-
    maintenance and advanced
    software and hardware to
    prevent malicious attacks from
    hacking and spamming.
    TYPES OF ATTACKS
    Passive Network
     wiretapping
     Port scanner

     Idle scan

    Active
     Smurf attack
     Buffer overflow
     Heap overflow
    HOW DOES NETWORK SECURITY WORK?
     Network security is accomplished through hardware
    and software. The software must be constantly
    updated and managed to protect you from emerging
    threats.
     A network security system usually consists of many
    components. Ideally, all components work together,
    which minimizes maintenance and improves security.
     Network security components often include:
     Anti-virus and anti-spyware
     Firewall, to block unauthorized access to your
    network
     Intrusion prevention systems (IPS), to identify fast-
    spreading threats, such as zero-day or zero-hour
    attacks
     Virtual Private Networks (VPNs), to provide secure
    remote access
    WHAT ARE THE BUSINESS BENEFITS OF
    NETWORK SECURITY?
     With network security in place, your
    company will experience many business
    benefits. Your company is protected against
    business disruption, which helps keep
    employees productive. Network security
    helps your company meet mandatory
    regulatory compliance. Because network
    security helps protect your customers' data, it
    reduces the risk of legal action from data
    theft.
     Ultimately, network security helps protect a
    business's reputation, which is one of its most
    important assets.
    WHAT IS NETWORK SECURITY AND HOW
    DOES IT PROTECT YOU?
     Many network security threats today are spread
    over the Internet. The most common include:
     Viruses, worms, and Trojan horses

     Spyware and adware

     Zero-day attacks, also called zero-hour attacks

     Hacker attacks

     Denial of service attacks

     Data interception and theft

     Identity theft
    NETWORK SECURITY TOOLS
     Network Based
    Firewalls
     Host Based Firewalls

     Network Based IDS's

     Host Based IDS's


    CONCLUSION

    I conclude my presentation
    sayings that as hackers and
    many algorithms are there to
    break passwords and mush
    valuable information will be
    loss so, network security is
    very important for us.
