Abstract
This article discusses effective methods for ensuring network security in the context of increasing reliance on computer, information, and telecommunication technologies. It highlights the importance of secure information exchange via networks, especially in governmental and organizational communication. Key threats such as unauthorized access, data interception, and denial-of-service attacks are identified. The article explores modern protective technologies including IPSec, VPN, and Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS), detailing their roles in safeguarding transmitted data and enabling secure remote access. A practical example of establishing a VPN network between a user's home and office is also presented as a reliable solution for maintaining confidentiality and data integrity in network communication.
