Abstract:
Computer networks are means of sharing resources and service between its
users. The basic measure of how useful a network is its resources, and their
availability. Therefore, network security is a very critical task in network
construction, without an applied security, the availability of the network cannot
be granted.
The objective of this research is to create a secure framework for the university
network, which can be trusted and used as standard, and guidelines for any
farther network implementation. This is to be done by:
- Specifying university network unique characteristics
- Customize security standards to be applicable for universities networks.
The generated framework has been applied to SUST network and proof that it is
customizable and applicable to universities networks.
