Network security is a serious matter.

A network allows you to share information and resources, but it also lets computer viruses, human intruders, or even disgruntled employees do far more damage than they could on a single machine. Think about what would happen if every bit of data on your local area network (LAN) vanished, and you'll understand why security is so important.

Here is a brief list of security measures to think about when you're installing a LAN:

Virtual data still requires physical security.

This could mean keeping your server in a locked room, removing disk drives from workstations that don't need them, and installing an alarm system in your office. All the security software in the world won't stop someone from breaking into your office and carting off your computers.

Beware of bugs.

Most computer viruses are just a nuisance, but it takes only one malevolent virus to bring your network to its knees. Install reliable antivirus software, keep it updated, and train your employees to use it. Think about other protective measures, such as installing only shrink-wrapped commercial software on your computers.

Network security is a daily job.

Stay on top of changes that could affect the security of your LAN. Keep your operating system updated with the latest security patches and bug fixes. Assign access to directories and other network resources on a need-to-have basis, and remove a user's account immediately when they leave your company. Use network logging and security tests to check your network for security holes and possible break-ins.

Information

Computer viruses are small software programs that are designed to spread from one computer to another and to interfere with computer operation. A virus might corrupt or delete data on your computer, use your e-mail program to spread itself to other computers, or even erase everything on your hard disk.

Viruses are often spread by attachments in e-mail messages or instant messaging messages. That is why it is essential that you never open e-mail attachments unless you know who it's from and you are expecting it.

Viruses can be disguised as attachments of funny images, greeting cards, or audio and video file.
