Understanding Network Protocols: The Backbone of Digital Communication In the world of networking, protocols are crucial. A network protocol is essentially a set of rules used by two or more devices on a network to dictate the delivery and structure of data. Think of protocols as the common language that allows devices across the globe to communicate seamlessly. These rules, embedded in data packets, guide the receiving device on how to handle the information they receive. While network protocols are indispensable for communication, it's essential for security analysts to comprehend their associated security implications. Some protocols have inherent vulnerabilities that can be exploited by malicious actors. Take the Domain Name System (DNS) protocol, for instance. DNS resolves web addresses to IP addresses, but if compromised, it can divert traffic from a legitimate website to a malicious one laden with malware.
