Network Security
Introduction
There is a cyberwar underway: The BlackHats Vs. WhiteHats. The BlackHats are individuals who performs malicious activity on a public network. On the contrary, the WhiteHats attempts to prevent their network or other networks from being attacked by the BlacksHats. They have been battling for over a decade and unfortunately, the battle continues.
If you wish to participate or learn more about the war of the computers, you have come to the right place. Network Security is a fast growing field and security will remain an ongoing issue as data becomes more digital. It is extremely difficult to understand and keep track of all the techniques, theories, and tools needed to adequately prevent malicious data from spreading on our networks.
Often times, researchers and teachers explain the theory behind techniques but neglect to mention how the techniques are implemented. For our society, in my oppinion, it is neccesary for engineers and programmers to now how certain techniques are being implemented in the wild so that research can advance more quickly. Thus, this wiki different from other wikis because this wiki focus on the implementation rather than the theory. It provides researchers with the necessary tools to run experiments, solve new problems, and protect their networks.
Additionally, I will discuss the various techniques, tools, and recent developments in network security. I will divide network security into two categories: offensive security and defensive security. Both categories are equally important. This wiki not only teaches the concept, but it also thoroughly explain the implementation of the concept. In some cases, I will
