Network Infrastructure: The missing gap in your cyber security strategy
By Robbie Millington
Network infrastructure is an indispensable component of your IT strategy that can either fortify your cyber security or leave your company susceptible to security breaches.
We interviewed Robbie, our Solutions Architect who has extensive experience in network design, to discuss the components of network infrastructure, the challenges, and considerations you can take to strengthen your network security.
What does a company’s network infrastructure entail?
A company's network infrastructure is the foundation that enables communication between interconnected hardware, software, and services. It provides a connectivity and data sharing platform within an organisation, playing a critical role in supporting its overall IT needs.
The network infrastructure comprises several components that vary depending on the size, nature, or individual requirements of the organisation. There are three fundamental elements that all networks and businesses require: firewall/router, switch, and wireless provision.
Why does prioritising network infrastructure and its security matter?
Prioritising network security is essential for protecting confidential data and information. The idea behind a secure network infrastructure is to prevent unauthorised access, which could lead to data breaches, therefore protecting confidential information from falling into the wrong hands. This extends to preventing cyber attacks such as ransomware, DDos, malware etc.
