A secure access service edge ( SASE) is technology used to deliver wide area network (WAN) and security controls as a cloud computing service directly to the source of connection ( user, device, Internet of things (IoT) device, or edge computing location) rather than a data center. [1] It uses cloud and edge computing technologies to reduce the ...
The company was quick to capture the emerging service provider environment, entering the SP market with product lines such as Cisco 7000 and Cisco 8500. [17] Between 1992 and 1994, Cisco acquired several companies in Ethernet switching , such as Kalpana , [18] Grand Junction [19] and most notably, Mario Mazzola 's Crescendo Communications, [20 ...
An application-level gateway ( ALG, also known as application layer gateway, application gateway, application proxy, or application-level proxy) is a security component that augments a firewall or NAT employed in a mobile network. [1] [2] It allows customized NAT traversal filters to be plugged into the gateway to support address and port ...
Hot Standby Router Protocol. In computer networking, the Hot Standby Router Protocol ( HSRP) is a Cisco proprietary redundancy protocol for establishing a fault-tolerant default gateway. Version 1 of the protocol was described in RFC 2281 in 1998. Version 2 of the protocol includes improvements and supports IPv6 but there is no corresponding ...
SOA security. SOA security addresses the issue of combining services in a service-oriented architecture (SOA) in a secure manner. These issues arise as an effect of the main premise of SOA, which is to erase application boundaries and technology differences. Prior to the application of SOA methodologies, security models have traditionally been ...
An example of physical security measure: a metal lock on the back of a personal computer to prevent hardware tampering. Computer security, cybersecurity, digital security or information technology security (IT security) is the protection of computer systems and networks from attacks by malicious actors that may result in unauthorized information disclosure, theft of, or damage to hardware ...
IPv6 hosts configure themselves automatically. Every interface has a self-generated link-local address and, when connected to a network, conflict resolution is performed and routers provide network prefixes via router advertisements. Stateless configuration of routers can be achieved with a special router renumbering protocol.
A gateway is a piece of networking hardware or software used in telecommunications networks that allows data to flow from one discrete network to another. Gateways are distinct from routers or switches in that they communicate using more than one protocol to connect multiple networks [1] [2] and can operate at any of the seven layers of the OSI ...
