In my previous article, I have talked about all that you need to know about networks. In this article, I want to talk about
There is a saying that you cannot outgrow what you don’t know. The same thing applies to system security, you need to make
Statistical techniques can be used to evaluate the risk that exploits will be successful in a given network. This type of analysis can help decision-makers
Worms share similar characteristics. They all exploit an enabling vulnerability, have a way to propagate themselves, and they all contain a payload. Worm Components Despite
The security of the computer allows users to use the computer while keeping safe from threats. Computer Security can also be defined as managing

Before I start writing this article, here is a disclaimer. I am not writing this article to rubbish Nigeria as a country and I
Simply having a wired or wireless physical connection between end devices is not enough to enable communication. For communication to occur, devices must know “how”
Knowing the OSI reference model and the TCP/IP protocol model will come in handy when you learn about how data is encapsulated as it moves
In my previous article, I have talked much about how data travels across the network. In this article, I want to talk more about MAC
If your network is using the IPv4 communications protocol, the Address Resolution Protocol, or ARP, is what you need to map IPv4 addresses to MAC
Application layer programs generate data that must be exchanged between the source and destination hosts. The transport layer is responsible for logical communications between applications
You already know the fundamentals of TCP. Understanding the role of port numbers will help you to grasp the details of the TCP communication process.
The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) for IPv4 service automates the assignment of IPv4 addresses, subnet masks, gateways, and other IPv4 networking parameters. This is
The webservers that we so often connect to using names like www⋅cisco⋅com, are actually reached by assigning IP addresses to packets. On the internet, these
The network devices that people are most familiar with are end devices. To distinguish one end device from another, each end device on a
Now that the router has determined the best path for a packet based on the longest match, it must determine how to encapsulate the packet
When it comes to general security breaches, home networks are the most susceptible to attacks. The reason is that home network users always have the
IP was designed as a Layer 3 connectionless protocol. It provides the necessary functions to deliver a packet from a source host to a destination
