Osi model

Stressed trying to remember the seven layers of the OSI model in networking? Get this cheat sheet written for you and master the OSI model in no time.

One of the best break downs of the OSI model that I have seen today.

OSI MODEL

OSI model stands for open system interconnection model it has seven layers 1) Application layer 2) presentation layer 3) Session layer 4) transport layer 5)...

The difference between the OSI Model and the TCP/IP Model🌐

The OSI model is a framework for the functions of IT and telecommunications networks. Each layer is simply explained with examples.

The Open Systems Interconnection or OSI Model is a conceptual framework for describing the functions of a networking system. In order to facilitate interoperability between various devices and applications, the OSI model describes computing functions into a universal set of rules and standards. The connections among computing systems are divided into seven abstraction layers in the OSI reference model:

The image illustrates the types of attack that certain layer of the OSI models are vulnerable to. As a ethical hacker it is crucial to know which layer of OSI model can be targeted with which kind attack.

The Open Systems Interconnection model (OSI model) defines a concept where every function of a computing system resides at one of its seven levels. When people say, “Layer 3 routing” or “L7 load balancing” they are referring to the OSI Model. It is an incredibly handy tool for troubleshooting as it reminds you to check the system at each layer. The official documentation on the OSI Model can be found on the ISO site (yes, that’s confusing).
