cname (Canonical Name)

CNAME stands for "Canonical Name" and is a type of DNS (Domain Name System) record used to map one domain name to another. In simpler terms, a CNAME record is used to create an alias or shortcut from one domain name to another domain name. When a client (such as a web browser) looks up a domain name, the DNS system is responsible for translating that domain name into an IP address that the client

Micro-segmentation

Micro-segmentation is a security technique that involves dividing a large network into smaller, isolated segments at the application or workload level. Unlike traditional network segmentation , which divides a network into sub-networks at the network layer, micro-segmentation is focused on creating isolated, secure segments for individual applications or workloads. The goal of micro-segmentation i

Network Segmentation

Network segmentation is the process of dividing a large computer network into smaller, more manageable sub-networks, known as segments. The goal of network segmentation is to improve network security, increase network performance, and simplify network management. Network segmentation is typically achieved by using various types of network devices, such as routers, firewalls , and switches, to crea

North-South Traffic

North-south traffic refers to network traffic that enters or exits an organization's internal network, as opposed to traffic that occurs within the network (referred to as " east-west " traffic). The terms "north-south" and "south-north" are used to describe the direction of traffic flow in relation to an organization's network perimeter. North-south traffic typically refers to communication betwe

East-West Traffic

East-west traffic refers to network traffic that occurs within an organization's internal network, as opposed to traffic that enters or exits the network (referred to as "north-south" traffic ). East-west traffic typically refers to communication between servers, workstations, or other devices within a data center or between different data centers within an organization. This type of traffic often

Perimeter

In cybersecurity, a perimeter refers to a defined boundary or edge around an IT system or network that separates it from the untrusted external environment. The purpose of a perimeter is to provide a first line of defense against unauthorized access, malware, and other security threats. The perimeter is typically secured using a combination of technologies such as firewalls, intrusion detection sy

Cloud Network Security

Cloud network security refers to the measures taken to protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of data and systems in a cloud computing environment. This includes protecting the cloud infrastructure, virtualized systems, and communication channels used in cloud computing. Cloud network security measures may include firewalls, encryption, access control , monitoring, and threat det

IPsec: Tunnel Mode and Transport Mode

If you are looking to secure HTTPS-based applications, Pomerium is a better choice for speed, security, and ease-of-use. IPsec (Internet Protocol Security) is a protocol that provides security for IP-based communication. IPsec can operate in two modes: Tunnel Mode and Transport Mode. Tunnel Mode: In Tunnel Mode, the entire original IP packet is encapsulated in a new IP packet. The new packet is th

Software-Defined Networking (SDN)

Software-Defined Networking (SDN) is a network architecture that separates the control plane and the data plane in a network. The control plane is responsible for making decisions about how the network should operate, such as how data should flow and which routes should be used. The data plane is responsible for forwarding packets of data according to the decisions made by the control plane. In tr
