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!
Trusted Internet Access
With LANCOM Trusted Access (LTA), access rights and network connections for mobile employees can be managed centrally via the LANCOM Management Cloud. There are two options: to allow mobile users normal Internet traffic in principle (“split tunnel”) or to route all data traffic through the central LTA gateway – a unified firewall or an SD-WAN gateway with security functions such as anti-virus or content filters (“full tunnel”). This secures the entire Internet traffic of connected LTA clients and reduces the risks of unauthorized access, malware, phishing, and other cyber attacks to a minimum thanks to this “Trusted Internet Access”.
Network security according to NIS2
The EU has given network security a new, even higher priority with the new NIS2 directive: Because without state-of-the-art cybersecurity, attacks on critical infrastructure can have serious consequences for society and the economy. NIS2 requires many adjustments for some companies. We'll show you which ones:
How do you secure remote access these days? And how do companies integrate the much-vaunted zero-trust principle into their own system landscape?
With LANCOM Trusted Access, modern hybrid working can be implemented securely from anywhere and at any time and controlled centrally via cloud management – in an extremely flexible and highly scalable way.
