What to do about data theft.

To understnd network security, you have to understand the terminology.

In a previous article, I addressed the issues of Social Engineering and how to secure a computer network. But as more and more people ask me about netowrk security, I realized that many of them don't understand the basic terms I am using.

I put together a short list of terms that come up in conversations that center around security. I figure if this can help lay a foundation for non-technical people to build from, they may be more inclined to learn more about network security practices.

You can read the list of terms here here. Feel free to request any terms you may be unsure about in the discussion area and I'll have their definition posted asap.
