Network security needs attention, not only to prevent it in software but also to protect information during transmission. The confidentiality of information transmitted by general copper wire cables is not high, and it is easy to be eavesdropped and intercepted, while the confidentiality of fiber optic cables It is very strong, and it only needs to be converted by optical moduleshttps://www.fibermall.com/store-16528-100g-qsfp28.htm to convert optical and electrical signals.

That was a good read. Thanks for sharing. I understand the risks of working from home and always use a Linux VPN when I am coding.

Yes! nowadays cybersecurity is the biggest concern people are facing too many problems even big or small business suffer from this situation then during the pandemic developed the new risk but in that situation, you can use the VPN and avoid the major security risk but here is the more concern like phishing vishing attack, etc so you just found the other security ways to protect your data and privacy.

I will highlight a few more important points.

1. How to ensure secure storage of data?
2. Possibility of simultaneous joint work on projects by several users with different IP addresses.

Fiber optics are just the physical layer of data transmission. We must think harder and deeper.
