In today’s technology-driven world, securing digital assets is no longer optional, it is essential. As organizations and individuals increasingly rely on interconnected systems and cloud-based platforms, the threat landscape has evolved dramatically. To safeguard sensitive data and ensure reliable operations, two foundational concepts in the field of cybersecurity ( network security and cryptography) play a central role. This blog explores both subjects in detail, discussing the principles, tools, and techniques used to defend modern networks and protect the integrity of digital communications. Additionally, it offers insights into recent academic research that applies these concepts through practical security frameworks.   Section 1: Understanding Network Security Network security has become one of the most critical components of information technology, and it refers to the collection of tools, policies, protocols, and practices used to protect the confidentiality, integr...

In the ever-evolving landscape of cybersecurity, understanding both human vulnerabilities and technical defenses is crucial for protecting digital infrastructure. This blog explores two fundamental concepts Ethical Hacking and Social Engineering that reflect opposing sides of the cybersecurity spectrum: one being a proactive safeguard, the other a deceptive threat. Ethical hacking involves legally probing systems to uncover and fix weaknesses before malicious hackers can exploit them, while social engineering manipulates human behavior to bypass security barriers entirely. To support these themes, two academic journal reviews are discussed: one delves into Access Control strategies in cloud-native architectures, and the other analyzes Risk Management through structured decision-making methods. Together, these topics paint a comprehensive picture of modern security practices and their challenges in today's interconnected world.
