The Role of Network Access Control (NAC) in Modern Cybersecurity

29/01/202505/02/2025 SECITHUB

Network Access Control (NAC) has emerged as a critical pillar in modern cybersecurity, addressing the complexities of securing increasingly dynamic and heterogeneous networks. As organizations adopt IoT devices, enable remote work, and allow BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) policies, the need for robust control mechanisms becomes essential to ensure network integrity, minimize vulnerabilities, and maintain regulatory compliance. Why NAC Matters in Today’s Cybersecurity Landscape The modern enterprise network is no longer confined to a static perimeter. Devices ranging from employee laptops to IoT sensors continuously connect and disconnect, creating potential…

The Fundamentals of Network Segmentation

29/01/202505/02/2025 SECITHUB

Network segmentation involves dividing a network into smaller, isolated subnetworks, each with its own security controls and policies. This segmentation can be physical, using hardware devices like routers and firewalls, or logical, using software-defined networking (SDN) techniques. Types of Network Segmentation Physical Segmentation Logical Segmentation Micro-Segmentation Identity-Based Segmentation How to Implement Effective Network Segmentation Define Objectives and Scope Begin by identifying the purpose of segmentation in your network. Common goals include protecting sensitive data, preventing lateral movement of threats, and meeting compliance requirements. Conduct a thorough risk assessment to prioritize…
