Introduction

The purpose of GB/T 25068 is to provide detailed guidance on security aspects for the management, operation, use, and interconnection of information system networks.

This standard is designed to facilitate the adoption of security-related personnel (e.g., cybersecurity personnel) within organizations to meet their specific needs. GB/T 25068 comprises seven departments.

The structure is divided into several parts, and the main objectives of each part are as follows.

---Part 1: Overview and Concepts. Defines and describes concepts related to cybersecurity and provides management guidance.

---Part 2: Guidelines for Cybersecurity Design and Implementation. Provides organizations with guidance on how to plan, design, and implement high-quality cybersecurity architectures.

Provide guidance.

---Part 3: Threats, Design Techniques, and Controls for Network Access Scenarios. This section lists specific threats, design techniques, and controls relevant to typical network access scenarios.

Body risk, design technology and control.

---Part 4: Security Protection for Inter-network Communication Using Security Gateways. Provides guidance on the implementation, operation, monitoring, and auditing of network security using security gateways.

Guidelines on issues related to full control.

---Part 5: Security Protection for Cross-Network Communication Using Virtual Private Networks. Defines the specific measures for establishing secure connections using Virtual Private Networks.

Body risk, design technology and control elements.

---Part 6: Wireless Network Access Security. Defines the specific risks, design techniques, and controls for secure communication using wireless networks.

Elements, providing guidance for selecting, implementing, and monitoring the technical controls necessary for secure communications using wireless networks, applicable to all There are personnel involved in the detailed planning, design, and implementation of wireless network security.

---Part 7: Network Virtualization Security. Identifying network virtualization security risks and providing solutions for the secure implementation of network virtualization.

Guidelines.

It should be emphasized that GB/T 25068 provides more detailed implementation guidelines for network security controls, while GB/T 22081 addresses the aforementioned network...

The network security control has been described in a basic standardized manner.
