Network Security Monitoring (NSM)

Network Security Monitoring (NSM) is the practice of observing and analyzing a computer network in real-time to detect and respond to security threats. It involves using specialized tools and techniques to gather data about network traffic, system activities, and potential vulnerabilities. By continuously monitoring for unusual or suspicious behavior, NSM helps organizations identify attacks early, mitigate risks, and protect sensitive information. Essentially, it acts as a security camera for the network, ensuring that any potential threats are caught and addressed before they can cause harm.
