Network Security

Network security involves safeguarding computer network systems from unauthorized access, data breaches, and disruptions. It includes controlling access, using firewalls, detecting and preventing intrusions, encrypting data, enforcing security policies, deploying antivirus tools, maintaining software updates, monitoring for anomalies, and having an incident response plan. Employee training is also essential to minimize human-related security risks. Network security is vital to protect data, ensure business continuity, and maintain trust with stakeholders.

Perimeter

Perimeter network security constitutes the protective barriers enveloping the network, acting as a shield against external intrusions. The essential purpose of establishing this boundary is to control access to sensitive data. In IBS we ensure that your organization's network perimeter is meeting the requirements and all the company devices are well protected.
