The Importance of the Network Infrastructure

Many pieces and parts make up a network, and even one simple component that is not working can cause a failure of the network. If a network does not work, revenue and productivity suffer. In a nutshell, if you have vulnerabilities such as weak passwords (or no passwords), software vulnerabilities, or misconfigured devices, that leaves the door open to attackers. The impact of a down network is huge; it normally affects the workforce and other systems and customers that rely on that network. The NFP framework is designed to assist you to logically group functions that occur on the network and then focus on specific security measures you can take with each of these functions.
