What Are Network Security Solutions?
As the globe becomes more interconnected and reliant on digital technologies, cybercrime is surging. The year 2023 saw a notable increase in cyberattacks, resulting in more than 343 million victims. Between 2021 and 2023, data breaches rose by 72%, surpassing the previous record.
A network security solution is a platform or set of tools that can help secure computer networks and prevent cyber attacks. Different solutions focus on securing different aspects of the network and leverage different technological approaches to preventing the infiltration of unauthorized persons or entities.
​
Some network security solutions emphasize the external security perimeter, while others restrict internal activity to protect the network from inside. Advanced solutions offer visibility and control over network traffic, allowing organizations to prevent, identify, block, and remediate network threats, including insider threats.
​
One challenge for network security is to balance ease of use and business continuity needs with stringent security requirements. Organizations may choose a solution, or combine several solutions, to meet internal security policy requirements and comply with industry standards and regulations.

Next-Generation Firewalls (NGFW)
Firewall controls network traffic based on pre-configured rules and blocks unauthorized external access to resources inside the network perimeter. It inspects data packets to determine access and performs stateful inspection at layers three and four of the OSI network model.
Intrusion detection system
An intrusion detection system is a device or software application that monitors a network or systems for malicious activity or policy violations. Any intrusion activity or violation is typically either reported to an administrator or collected centrally using a security information and event management system
Remote Access VPN
Individual clients or hosts, such as mobile users, extranet consumers, and telecommuters, can securely access a network through a remote access virtual private network (VPN). However, VPNs are no longer considered secure in modern distributed IT environments as they grant access to the entire network and do not granular network permissions.
