Network Security: Compromises and Countermeasures
Overview Network security is a long-standing and well-recognized problem in the computing world. Protecting information is a main priority of a network administrator, with security techniques becoming increasingly robust. As more and more information has become digital, security of this digital information has tightened and mitigation techniques to protect the information have become more complex. While approaches to security have improved, intrusion techniques have also become increasingly complex and difficult to detect. This paper discusses two common network security attacks and two approaches to defending against such attacks, as well as an examination of honey pots (a supplemental defense), and uses these to motivate a discussion of the bigger issues involved and what the future of network security might look like.
