Keywords:
Network Vulnerability, Computer NetworkAbstract
A Computer Network is often refers to as a network, is used to share resources, applications and information through devices connected to the network. Computer network is a collection of autonomous computer interconnected by a single tech- nology. The computers aresaidto be interconnected if they are able to exchange information.
