Network security

From fundamentals to hands-on

By definition, network security describes the technical and organizational protection of the internal IT infrastructure with all its data, systems, devices, and applications to enable secure digitalization. These security mechanisms not only protect the data center, but also all locations and the cloud itself. Effective network security fends off unauthorized access, data manipulation or data theft with blackmail, system paralysis (DDoS attacks), and other damage caused by hackers, malware, and viruses.

It ensures that data is exchanged confidentially and with integrity and is always available via VPN (Virtual Private Networks) or ZTNA (Zero Trust Network Access). However, secure networks are created primarily through comprehensive information on network security and network protection, as well as targeted measures to enforce cyber protection policies at all levels. The best way to get started right now is with LANCOM insider knowledge on the subject of network security!

European Anti-Malware Solution

With the new firmware version LCOS FX 11.1 for our Unified Firewalls, we reaffirm our commitment to digital sovereignty. From now on, we are relying on the European anti-malware technology provided by Bitdefender. This change was a deliberate decision following the acquisition of our previous provider by a U.S.-based company. We remain true to our principles and strengthen our focus on trusted European security solutions. LCOS FX 11.1 stands for reliable security and independence – a clear statement of our dedication to quality and control from Europe to protect your data in the best possible way.
