The OSI model has seven layers‚ with each having different types of security responsibilities. The seven layers are application‚ presentation‚ session‚ transport‚ network‚ datalink and physical with control being passed down from layer to layer starting with application. The biggest threat to these layers is through people‚ sometimes known as the 8th layer of the OSI model. Companies should take the time to educate their employees on the security threats that each individual brings to the company

TCP/IP and OSI Reference Model First we discuss‚ what is TCP\IP and OSI model‚ why they are introduced and where they are used. In the following Section OSI Reference models explained with all layers as well as their responsibilities. Open Systems Interconnection model (OSI model): OSI reference model is now considered as a primary standard for internetworking and inter computing. Today many network communication protocols are based on the standards of OSI model. In the OSI model the network/data

OSI Protocol Hierarchy Session Layer The session layer is the fifth among the seven layers of the Open System Interconnections (OSI) model. It resides above the transport layer and below the presentation layer‚ and provides “value added" services to the underlying transport layer services. The session layer (along with the presentation layer) add services to the transport layer that are likely to be of use to applications‚ so that each application doesn ’t have to provide its own implementation

Checkpoint: OSI Model Paul Tegner IT/242 April 22‚ 2011 Mark Burke OSI Model The OSI Model consists of seven layers. These layers are the application layer‚ presentation layer‚ session layer‚ transport layer‚ network layer‚ data link layer‚ and physical layer. The Application Layer The application layer is responsible for interaction between the operating system and the network services and provides an interface to the system. It provides the user interface to a range

Reginald Monroe-@02516632 Summary of OSI layers & Security OSI stands for Open Systems Interconnection and it was developed by the Europeans in the 1980’s. OSI is divided into two major fields‚ an abstract model of networking and a set of defined protocols. The seven layers of the OSI basic reference model are listed and defined below (from bottom to top): 1. The Physical Layer – this layer describes the physical components of the various communications media‚ it also includes the electrical

What is the purpose of an OSI model? The purpose of an OSI model is a standard that was created for networks to share information. This standard governs the way information is transmitted over different networks. The model also sets guidelines to those in the manufacturing industry that create and develop software and hardware that are all compatible with each other. This paper will discuss and describe the 7 layers of the Open System Interconnection model (OSI model) and the layers of the Transport

The OSI model is a protocol stack where the lower layers deal primarily

Difference between OSI model and TCP/IP model The Internet Protocol Suite also known as TCP/IP is the set of communications protocols used for the Internet and other similar networks. It is named from two of the most important protocols in it: the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and the Internet Protocol (IP)‚ which were the first two networking protocols defined in this standard. IP networking represents a synthesis of several developments that began to evolve in the 1960s and 1970s‚ namely

OSI Model Analogy Trevor Crews Strayer University The OSI model is the model developed for computer-to-computer communications over a network. This model breaks down all the functions that occur into seven distinct layers. These layers are‚ application‚ presentation‚ session‚ transport‚ network‚ data link‚ and the physical layer. Each one encompasses a specific part of the process that occurs during the communication. In order to simplify this think of it like sending a package through the

Introduction Prior to OSI‚ networking was largely either government-sponsored or vendor-developed and proprietary standards such as SNA and DECnet. In the UK work on the Experimental Packet Switched system circa 1973‚ the need to define so called higher level protocols above the HDLC link level communications protocol and the content of an NCC publication ’Why Distributed Computing’ resulting from considerable research into future configurations for computer systems resulted in the UK presenting
