Encryption is essential for guaranteeing the security of exchanged data, by making it unreadable to hackers. When a company transmits sensitive information, such as contracts, financial information or personal data, over a network, the risk of it being intercepted by cybercriminals is very real. Encryption protects this data during transmission, ensuring that it cannot be read by unauthorised third parties.

Luxnetwork offers you connectivity solutions from your offices, data centres or clouds selected for their level of security. Data is exchanged via Internet access, private MPLS links or WDM. For each of these means of transport (or data exchange), there are encryption technologies such as IPsec (Internet Protocol Security), MACsec (Media Access Control Security) or the exchange of SSL certificates.

These encryption technologies ensure not only the confidentiality of data, but also its integrity. This means that information cannot be altered in transit, either by hackers or technical errors. They also guarantee that the sender of the information is who he claims to be, thanks to robust authentication mechanisms.

DDoS protection: a shield against Internet cyberthreats

DDoS (distributed denial of service) attacks have become a common weapon used to destabilise businesses. Their principle is simple: send a colossal number of requests to a server until it is overwhelmed, rendering it incapable of responding to legitimate user requests. This can block online services for hours or even days, causing significant financial losses and damaging a company's reputation.

These attacks are often carried out using botnets. A botnet is a network of machines or devices infected with malicious software, controlled remotely by a cybercriminal. Each infected device, known as a "bot" or "zombie", executes the attacker's commands without the owner's knowledge. These botnets, spread across the globe, make it difficult to trace and block the origin of DDoS attacks. As a result, legitimate users can no longer access services, damaging revenue and customer confidence.

Firewall: the first line of defence against attacks

The firewall plays a fundamental role in protecting networks by monitoring and controlling incoming and outgoing traffic. Acting as a security barrier, it filters communications between the internal network and the Internet, but also within the network itself. Based on predefined rules, the firewall determines which traffic is allowed through and which must be blocked, protecting infrastructures against cyber-attacks and insecure traffic. At Luxnetwork, these solutions are implemented thanks to the expertise of our engineers and the robustness of our network.

In an increasingly connected environment, guaranteeing data security has become a priority for all businesses. Technologies such as end-to-end encryption, advanced firewalls and anti-DDoS solutions are now essential for protecting infrastructures and ensuring service continuity. By adopting these measures, businesses can protect themselves against the growing threats of cyberspace and strengthen the confidence of their users.
