Network security domains refer to the different areas or components of a computer network that need to be protected from unauthorized access or attack. These domains may include:
- Endpoint security: protecting individual devices, such as laptops and smartphones, that connect to the network.
- Network infrastructure security: protecting the routers, switches, and other hardware that make up the network infrastructure.
- Cloud security: protecting data and resources that are stored in or accessed through the cloud.
- Application security: protecting the software applications and services that run on the network, such as web servers and databases.
- Data security: protecting sensitive data, such as financial information or personal identities, that is stored or transmitted on the network.
- Identity and access management: controlling and monitoring who can access network resources and what actions they can perform.
- Disaster recovery and business continuity: ensuring that the network can recover quickly from disasters or other disruptions, and that critical business functions can continue during and after an incident.
