Network Security and Defense — Cybersecurity Analyst / Ethical Hacker…
The tools and architecture defenders use to keep attackers out
Steps in Network Security and Defense
- Firewalls and Network Segmentation — intermediate · How firewalls filter traffic and why network segmentation limits an attacker's blast radius
- IDS and IPS — intermediate · Detecting and blocking malicious traffic patterns in real time
- Zero Trust Architecture — intermediate · Why 'never trust, always verify' has replaced the traditional network perimeter model
- Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) — intermediate · How modern endpoint tools detect and respond to malicious behavior on a host
- Network Traffic Monitoring — intermediate · Establishing a baseline of normal traffic so anomalies actually stand out
- DMZ and Network Architecture — intermediate · Designing network zones that isolate public-facing services from internal systems
