Network areas and structurally secure network design

Critical

An owner is defined for an organization's networks. The owner is responsible for planning the structure of the network and documenting it.

Separate network areas are used in network design as needed. Domain areas can be defined by e.g.:

  • trust level (eg public, workstations, server)
  • organizational units (eg HR, financial management)
  • or by some combination (for example, a server domain that is connected to multiple organizational units)

Separation can be implemented either with physically separate networks or with logically separate networks.
