Non-repudiation
A service that is used to provide assurance of the integrity and origin of data in such a way that the integrity and origin can ...
Normalization
Converting each log data field to a particular data representation and categorizing it consistently.See NIST SP 800-92 under Log Normalization for more information.See NIST SP ...
Network Access Control (NAC)
A feature provided by some firewalls that allows access based on a user’s credentials and the results of health checks performed on the telework client ...
Network Address Translation (NAT)
A routing technology used by many firewalls to hide internal system addresses from an external network through use of an addressing schema.See NIST SP 800-41 ...
National Vulnerability Database
The U.S. government repository of standards-based vulnerability management data represented using the Security Content Automation Protocol (SCAP). This data informs the automation of vulnerability management, security measurement, ...
(NIST) Special Publication
Special Publication – a designation for NIST documents, sometimes supporting FIPS.See NIST SP 800-76-2 under SP for more information.
Near Field Communication
A form of contactless, close proximity, radio communications based on radio-frequency identification (RFID) technology. See NIST SP 800-101 Rev. 1 for more information.
Network Address Translation
A mechanism for mapping addresses on one network to addresses on another network, typically private addresses to public addresses. See NIST SP 800-77 under Network Address Translation for ...
Network Discovery
The process of discovering active and responding hosts on a network, identifying weaknesses, and learning how the network operates. See NIST SP 800-115 for more information.
Network Intrusion Detection System
Software that performs packet sniffing and network traffic analysis to identify suspicious activity and record relevant information. See NIST SP 800-86 for detailed information.
Network Layer
Layer of the TCP/IP protocol stack that is responsible for routing packets across networks. See the following for detailed information: NIST SP 800-113. NIST SP 1800-21B from NIST SP 800-113.
