We introduce you to some well-known attack patterns and countermeasures that can be...

DHCP snooping makes a network more secure. There are no two ways about it: DHCP makes network configuration so much easier. This is especially the case in large networks, where devices are constantly changing and the manual assignment of IP addresses is a never-ending task.

DDoS attacks are occurring more and more frequently. Among the most insidious are HTTP flood attacks.
