In this review, we found out under the influence of what factors and how approaches to ensuring network security are being transformed in the current conditions, when, on the one hand, rapid changes are taking place in the corporate ICT infrastructure, and on the other hand, the cyber threat landscape is changing just as quickly and becoming more complex. Our experts were representatives of companies working in the field of information security.

Modern factors influencing network architecture and its security
Virtualization. Fortinet's Head of Systems Engineers Alexey Andryashin names two main approaches to traffic control in virtualized infrastructures: traffic control of virtual services at the security gateway level and data analysis at the virtualization platform hypervisor level.

Following the virtualization of application servers, it is time to separate other components of the ICT infrastructure, including its network part, from the hardware. According to Mr. Andryashin, software-defined networking technologies (SDN, SD-WAN) are gaining wide popularity among both telecom operators and service providers, as well as large companies with an extensive and constantly changing network infrastructure. According to a number of experts, these technologies have become the defining feature of the so-called next-generation networks (NGN).
