Análisis y diseño de una arquitectura de seguridad de red utilizando herramientas de seguridad perimetral.

Abstract

In the business environment, where information has become the main asset of organizations, it is constantly exposed to the loss of its confidentiality, availability and integrity, caused by actions of internal and external agents, who either intentionally or not, can alter the normal flow of activities within companies. And it is that every day millions of data is generated in companies from the smallest to the largest, which in many cases do not have adequate protection, which carries the risk that ill-intentioned individuals take advantage of this, to enter the internal company network and manipulate or steal vital data (usually financial data) for business transactions. It is worth mentioning that even in many cases, these individuals even hijack the companies' network in exchange for remuneration. This scenario presents the problem of how to better manage information security? within the company, and it is necessary to identify which are the vulnerabilities that the company network presents to be able to take protection measures against the risks that are presented externally or internally. When talking about risks, at least in the present case, it is about mentioning risks digitally, that is to say that mention is made mainly of cyber-attacks, which since they appeared have been evolving and becoming more sophisticated every day , and that is why it is important to know how to act accordingly to these attacks, and it is because of this that a good network architecture can make a difference in terms of the ability to react against attacks from the internal network or from the web, in order to mitigate the impact of malicious interference.
