7 Myths about Network Security

So this evening I was doing the dew and catching up on some reading when I came across an interesting article on Security Pipeline about the "7 Myths of Network Security". It is well worth the read. In summary, the article breaks down the 7 Myths as:

1. Myth: Encryption guarantees protection
2. Myth: Firewalls will make you bulletproof
3. Myth: Hackers ignore old software
4. Myth: Macs Are safe
5. Myth: Security tools and software patches make everybody safer
6. Myth: As long as your corporate network is unbreached, hackers can't hurt you
7. Myth: If you work for a security enterprise, your data is safe.
