Network security is a crucial aspect of cybersecurity, focused on protecting computer networks and systems from internal and external threats. Its main goals are to prevent unauthorized access, detect and stop ongoing attacks, and ensure secure access for authorized users.


As networks expand and become more complex, the risk of cyberattacks increases. According to IBM’s Cost of a Data Breach 2023 report, 82% of data breaches involved cloud-stored data, with an average global cost of $4.45 million per breach. In the U.S., this cost more than doubles to $9.48 million. Network security measures are essential to safeguard network integrity, resources, and traffic, minimizing financial and operational impacts.
