Ani Boneva, Yordanka Boneva · Problems of Engineering Cybernetics and Robotics · 2022
Ensuring information security is crucial for corporations with a complex, geographically distributed structure at many levels: large banks, multinational and state-owned companies.Often the corporate networks of such organizations are built with equipment from different generations and from different manufacturers, which significantly complicates the process of managing the IT system.The article presents the elements of the security system used to protect information in a distributed corporate network.Various elements (firewalls, cryptographic algorithms, anti-virus programs, etc.) and company products, which are the main units in building corporate security systems, are described.Special attention is paid to public key cryptography and a software implementation Coder 1.0 (developed on Tcl/Tk) is proposed, implementing encrypted data exchange inside of corporate networks and between corporate networks.
