#7. Network traffic flow analysis:

One of the best ways to ensure better security within a network is by deploying a technique called network flow analysis. There are lots of free and commercial software available in the market, which can note down or analyze the traffic flow and establish a good path that determines what should be going and where. Reports say that companies that have established network traffic flow analysis within their complex have seen a good downfall in cyber crimes and hacks throughout their networks. With network traffic flow analyzer, organizations can suddenly discover attacks when they see certain incidents where hundreds of gigabytes of data suddenly and unexpectedly head for offshore or across and outside the environment. Analysts and reports say that this is the case for most of the data attacks. Security structures within organizations are so immature that they fail in discovering most of the APT (Advanced Persistent Threat) attacks, if they had an idea of what data should have been going where and when.
