A Proposed Model for Datacenter in -Depth Defense to Enhance Continual Security(Applied Study to ENR Datacenter – Egyptian National Railways)

Abstract

Defense in Depth is practical strategy for achieving Information Assurance in today's highly datacenter environments. It is a "best practices" strategy in that it relies on the intelligent application of techniques and technologies that exist today. The strategy recommends a balance between the protection capability and cost, performance, and operational considerations. This paper provides an overview of the major elements of the strategy and provides links to resources that provide additional insight. Co mpanies need to address the security challenges of datacenter using a comprehensive defense-in-depth strategy. No single security solution will keep a determined thief fro m the goal of compro mising the hardware or software given enough time and resources. Applying mu ltip le layers of system security will slow the progress made by a thief, and hopefully, force the thief to abandon the pursuit, at the least, resale of the stolen property, and at worst, of confidential corporate data. The Defense in depth is the concept of protecting a Datacenter with a series of defensive mechanisms such that if one mechanism fails, another will already be in place to thwart an attack. In this paper, the main focus is given to highlight the security aspects of data center fro m perspectives of threats and attacks from one side and approaches for solutions from the other side. The paper also proposes an effective and flexib le d istributed scheme with two salient features. Our scheme ach ieves the integration of continual security imp rovement and Security Risk localizat ion. This paper deals with the implementation of defense in depth at a strategic, principle-based level and provides additional guidance on specific sets of controls that may be applicable to support an organizat ion's defense in depth init iatives.

Using Linear Regression Analysis and Defense in Depth to Protect Networks during the Global Corona Pandemic

“…The strategy recommends a balance between the protection capability and cost, performance, and operational considerations [19]. defenses that are symmetric [10].…”

“…Colleagues may give hackers personal information while social distancing which could be used during a phishing attack. Companies need to address the security challenges of datacenter using a comprehensive defense-in-depth strategy [19].…”

“…To make the administrators understand the alerts and network situation and take appropriate actions, security situation analysis of network is needed [20]. Defense in depth promotes the idea that a layered approach to datacenter security makes for a formidable challenge for attackers to circumvent and/or compromise networks and their systems [19]. While working from home extra security is necessary to protect organizational data.…”

“…Similarly, new bugs and vulnerabilities targeting the cloud are proliferating [12]. Large companies' networks offer more targets for hackers.…”
