A SOC relies on a supporting infrastructure of tools and systems that provide the following services: Network mapping Network monitoring Vulnerability detection Penetration testing Data collection Threat and anomaly detection Data aggregation and correlation
In my previous article, I have talked about some of the facts that you need to know about computer security awareness. In this article, I want to look at seven major threats to system security. Follow me
In my previous article, I have talked about all that you need to know about networks. In this article, I want to talk about some of the network basics that you need to know
There is a saying that you cannot outgrow what you don’t know. The same thing applies to system security, you need to make a conscious effort to learn of you don’t want to
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 to better evaluate the cost of mitigating a threat with
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 mitigation techniques that have emerged over the years, worms

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” to communicate. Communication, whether face-to-face or over a network, is
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 across a network. It is not as simple as a
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 addresses and IP Addresses. Follow me as we will look
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 addresses. This topic explains how ARP works. Every IP device
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 running on different hosts. This may include services such as
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. In this topic, you will also learn about the TCP
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 referred to as dynamic addressing. The alternative to dynamic addressing
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 domain names are much easier for people to remember than
The network devices that people are most familiar with are end devices. To distinguish one end device from another, each end device on a network has an address. When an end device initiates communication,
