Security Risk Assessment Framework for Network Layer

Security assessment is a crucial process in the application deployment. The network layer plays an important role in the computer infrastructure. Network infrastructure generally consists of firewall, router, and switches etc. The vulnerabilities and technology gaps in the network assets may lead to serious problems in the security and application deployment. Here, the authors study the risk assessment framework for a network layer for making the network layer more effective and secure. The study led to quantifying risk factor of a network layer.
