Abstract

The security of an organization's network infrastructure is critical for the success of its operations, and single points of failure in the network can pose significant risks to the organization. This research project aims to investigate the risks associated with single points of failure in an organization's infrastructure and the importance of redundancy, with a specific focus on the service availability and role of firewall redundancy in supporting business security architecture. The project will use simulation-based experiments to evaluate the effectiveness of service availability and firewall redundancy and improving the security and reliability of an organization's infrastructure. This will help organizations ensure the continuity of their critical business processes in the event of a security breach or any hardware link or system failures. The proposed research will provide valuable insights into the practical challenges and benefits of providing resource reliability and service availability by implementing firewall redundancy in real-world security scenarios and offer recommendations for its implementation. The results of this research can be used by organizations to improve the availability, security and reliability of their network infrastructure and ensure the protection of their critical business data.
