Network security
What a secure network looks like
From the internet to the local printer: this is how a network can be built.
01 / 13
This is what your network could look like!
A modern network connects devices, servers and the cloud. A secure network also divides them into zones and controls every transition between them.
The building blocks of a secure network as a list
- Internet & cloud: internet connection, cloud services (SaaS), mobile apps
- Perimeter protection: router, next-generation firewall, IDS/IPS, web application firewall
- Segmentation (VLANs): separate zones for DMZ, servers, clients, printers, guests, IoT and management
- Network technology: core switch, access switches, 802.1Q trunks, Wi-Fi access point with WPA3
- Servers & storage: web server, application server, database, NAS, Active Directory
- Operating systems & updates: Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, Android and Windows Server, centrally patched and monitored
- End devices & peripherals: computers, laptops, smartphones with endpoint protection (EDR), printers, scanners
- Identity & access: multi-factor authentication (MFA), VPN, Zero Trust – every access is checked
- Monitoring & emergencies: SIEM collects all logs, backups following the 3-2-1 rule, offline against ransomware
