The National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) has released new guidance to help organisations strengthen their network security. With networks playing a crucial role in business operations, ensuring they are secure and resilient is more important than ever.

The guidance is divided into eight key sections:

  1. Identifying your assets
  2. Understanding the threat
  3. Restricting access
  4. Designing network architecture
  5. Protecting data in transit
  6. Securing network perimeters
  7. Updating systems
  8. Monitoring networks

The guidance provides an overview in each area as well as further reading that can help you ensure that your network is as secure as possible.
