Discuss why you believe network security is important. Are the reasons for its importance different depending on the size or complexity of the network? What are some examples of what you believe creates the level of importance to the security of a network?

 

Answer:

Network security is very important especially in business world and as well as well as home .Network security is important because it builds trust this means that security for large systems will translate to security for everyone ,Also network security mitigates risk this means that it mitigates the potential of being interfere with by people ,Also network security protects proprietary information meaning that  it protects secret of a given company or an information which a company wishes to keep confidential. Network security is also important because it enables one to access control meaning that not everyone or every person will be in charge of the access but only specific people..

.The given importance of a network are not different depending on the size and complexity of a network this is because the network which is secured no matter its size it will still be safe in the hands of the user be at home or at a given company

There are some things that creates the level of importance to the security of a network for example the complex combination of hardware devices such as routers, firewalls and anti malware software applications ,The government and the businesses agencies do employ highly skilled information security analysts to implement security plans and constantly monitor the efficacy of these plans to the betterment of the network security for a good network security system help businesses reduce the risk of falling victim of data theft and sabotage
