A collective noun referring to different types of data storage options. Media
It standardizes computing functions into a universal set of rules and requirements for interoperability. OSI Model
It delivers messages to the correct destination using the physical address in the incoming message. Switch
It filters data packets traversing the network. Firewall
A form of network security that detects and prevents identified threats. Network-based Intrusion Prevention System (NIPS)
It monitors network traffic using sensors placed at key network locations such as DMZs and borders. Network-based Intrusion Detection System (NIDS)
A basic operating system that runs on a network device such as a router or firewall. Network Operating System (NOS)
Rules that specify how data is transmitted, commands used, and how transfers are confirmed. Protocol
Logical network segments used to create separate broadcast domains. Virtual LAN (VLAN)
A form of network security that detects and prevents identified threats. Intrusion Prevention System (IPS)
Used to transfer files between computers on a network. FTP
A firewall setup used to protect hosts on a network segment. DMZ
Developed by Netscape in 1995 to ensure privacy, authentication, and data integrity in Internet communications. SSL
Technology that uses encrypted tunnels to create secure connections across public networks. Virtual Private Network (VPN)
A router device built specifically for creating and managing VPN infrastructures. VPN Concentrator
A supporting protocol in the Internet Protocol suite. ICMP
The first choice for businesses operating in industries with low privacy concerns. Public Cloud
Resembles a private cloud, but differs in the set of users. Community Cloud
A method used to modify network address information while traffic traverses a router or firewall. Network Address Translation (NAT)
Available as standalone devices or firewall components. Flood Guards
Maximum speed of 802.11ac. 1 Gbps
Protects against flooding of the Ethernet switching table and is enabled on Layer 2 interfaces. MAC Limiting
A network switch feature containing a mapping of device information to VLANs. VLAN Management
Maximum speed of 802.11a. 54 Mbps
Allows administrators to configure switch ports to permit only a specified number of MAC addresses. Port Security
A security protocol designed to provide wireless LAN security comparable to wired LAN security. WEP
The prevention of unauthorized access or breaches through wireless networks. Wireless Security
Performs a specified action when BPDUs are not received on a non-designated port. Loop Protection
Can provide security by segregating clients with unknown MAC addresses and integrating with ACLs. VLAN Management
Targets state-changing requests rather than theft of data because the attacker cannot see the response. Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF)
The process of making applications more secure by identifying and fixing vulnerabilities. Application Security
The simplest form of cross-site scripting. Reflected XSS
A specialized high-speed network providing block-level access to storage. Storage Area Network (SAN)
A computer network that provides access to consolidated block-level data storage. Storage Area Network (SAN)
An attack that forces a user to execute unwanted actions on a web application where they are authenticated. Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF)
Often necessary to fix software problems discovered after release. Patch Management
Ensures only properly formed data enters an information system. Input Validation
Supplemental code used to update software. Patch
Includes fixing security vulnerabilities and software bugs. Patch
Implements security arrangements to ensure system and data security. Trusted Computing Base (TCB)

Detects spyware through rules-based methods or downloaded definition files. Anti-spyware
May be permanent until patched again or temporary. Patch
Forwards packets based on information in a routing table. Router
OSI layer where end users and applications directly interact with software applications. Application Layer
A standard set of rules allowing electronic devices to communicate. Protocol
The term can also refer collectively to the press or news-reporting organizations. Media
