Secure Access to Routers and Switches
Use virtual routing and forwarding (VRF) technology to segment network traffic over multiple routing tables simultaneously on a single router. Establish, implement, and actively manage (track, report on, correct) the security configuration of network infrastructure devices using a rigorous configuration management and change control process in order to prevent attackers from exploiting vulnerable services and settings. Network infrastructure devices are the components of a network that transport communications needed for data, applications, services, and multi-media. These devices include routers, firewalls, switches, servers, load-balancers, intrusion detection systems, domain name systems, and storage area. This comprehensive guide will walk you through the essential strategies, step-by-step configurations, and industry best practices to fortify your network's perimeter. The good news? A few simple tweaks and upgrades can dramatically improve your protection—without requiring a degree in IT.
