ABSTRACT

As  a  growing  number  of  users  rely on transferring
critical   data  over  computer  networks, the need for
correct   network security becomes more apparent.  This
paper    outlines  possible  threats  presented  by  an
arbitrary   network   malcontent,  and  then  discusses
necessary   goals   of   network   security   aimed  at
counteracting these threats.   Measures for realising a
secure network and their  corresponding  mechanisms are
placed  within  the  OSI  architectural  framework  and
examined in depth.
