1.软件安全性:
顾名思义,软件安全性是用于保护或保护程序免受恶意攻击或黑客攻击的安全性类型。软件攻击的类型包括病毒,错误,cookie,密码攻击,恶意软件攻击,缓冲区溢出,欺骗等。Absolute,Norton,McAfee等是一些管理软件安全的流行公司。它只是确保软件继续函数并且不受攻击。
2.网络安全:
顾名思义,网络安全是一种用于保护系统,网络和程序免遭未经授权的访问或攻击的安全性。也称为计算机安全性或信息安全性。网络攻击的类型包括特洛伊木马,蛮力攻击,内部威胁,SQL注入,勒索软件攻击等。埃森哲,思科,Centify,传输安全等是一些管理网络安全的流行公司。它分为三种类型:云安全性,应用程序安全性和网络安全性。
软件安全性和网络安全性之间的区别:

Cyber Security |
---|---|
It is process of providing security to software against malicious attack and other hackers risks. | It is a process of providing security to computer systems and networks from attack, damage, and unauthorized access. |
It is important because it helps to prevent viruses and malwares that allows program to run quicker and smoother. | It is important because it include everything that can be done to protect confidential data, PII (Personally identifiable information), PHI (Protected health information), personal data, etc. |
Its process includes designing, creating, and testing security software. | Its process includes risk management, network security, monitoring, managing user privileges, malware protection. |
It is especially designed to make software systems free of vulnerabilities and impervious to attack as possible. | It is especially designed to protect network, devices, programs, and data from attack, damage, or unauthorized access. |
Its main aim is to develop more-robust, higher-quality, and defect-free software that simply continues to function properly and correctly. | Its main aim is to prevent or mitigate or reduce harm and defend computing assets against all threat actors throughout entire life cycle of cyber-attack. |
Its activities include secure software design, developing secure coding guidelines for developers to follow, secure coding that follows established guidelines, developing secure configuration procedures and standards for deployment phase, etc. | Its activities include protecting and securing data, protecting information technology, discovering threats, removing unwarranted data, ensuring confidentiality and server availability, etc. |
It deals with only small piece of software that is usually uploaded to one computer of system at a time. | It deals with larger-scale network or entire cybernetic interweb or digital marketplace. |
Its domain protects only system or mechanism it is attached to such as computer it is attached to, integrity of files, confidentiality of files, etc. | Its domain protects each and everything within cyber realm such as software, data, code, technology, hardware, information both digital and analog, etc. |
Tools used for software security includes antivirus protection, antimalware, antispyware, data encryption software, etc. | Tools used for cyber security includes firewalls, behavior-monitoring layers, online back-up systems, network-based restrictions, etc. |
It is less versatile as compared to cyber security. | It is more versatile because it protects more digital architecture as compared to software security. |
