ABSTRACT

Network security architectures are considered to define standard or

de facto

network security architectural frameworks built on basic, enhanced, and integrated technologies as well as other necessary relevant network technologies. These architectures are intended to provide guidelines for implementing large-scale security systems within the architecture’s defined domain. To be considered a network security architecture, a technology must typically:

Define a suite of network security technologies that collectively implements a number of the five network security functional elements needed to support a set of pre-defined network security services.
