Hey everyone! π Today was all about diving into network protocols and security concepts. I had a very productive day and spent time reinforcing what I learned previously! πͺβ¨
Learning About Network Protocols ππ
I kicked off the day by delving into the foundational elements of network communication. Understanding the workings of the TCP/IP model helped me grasp how data transmission occurs. π»π¨ Reviewing each layer of the OSI model made it easier for me to comprehend the communication processes. These insights are crucial as I progress in my journey toward becoming a Cyber Security Analyst! ππ
Exploring Subnetting and CIDR ππ
I also focused on subnetting and CIDR (Classless Inter-Domain Routing). Subnetting simplifies network management by breaking down networks into smaller segments. ποΈβ¨ Meanwhile, CIDR provided me with valuable information on IP addressing methods. Understanding these two concepts is vital for managing networks securely and efficiently. ππ Revisiting complex terminology helped solidify my knowledge! ππ€
Understanding Security Zones and Firewalls ππ‘οΈ
Additionally, I learned about the critical concepts of security zones and firewalls in network security. π°β¨ Security zones create a framework to safeguard different components within a network. Firewalls act as protective barriers between internal and external networks. π§π By combining these topics, I developed a more comprehensive understanding of how to protect networks effectively! ππͺ
Writing and Sharing My Insights! ππ‘
At the end of the day, I was inspired to share my newfound knowledge through four Medium posts! ποΈπ Writing helped me clarify my thoughts while also providing a way to share information with others. Here are my latest articles:
