What is Infrastructure Security?
Infrastructure security is the practice of protecting the physical and virtual components of an organization’s IT infrastructure from threats and vulnerabilities. This includes securing servers, data centers, network devices, and cloud services to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of critical systems and data. Infrastructure security involves implementing measures such as firewalls, intrusion detection and prevention systems, encryption, access controls, and regular security assessments. The goal is to safeguard the infrastructure against cyberattacks, physical breaches, and other disruptions, ensuring the stable and secure operation of the organization’s IT environment.
