Definition
NetSecOps is a convergence of network operations (NetOps) and security operations (SecOps) into a unified approach to manage and secure an organization’s network infrastructure.
The main aim is to integrate the traditionally separate functions of network management and security to ensure performance and security across the network.
Moreover, this approach helps to reduce labor and operating costs by eliminating overlaps in the job positions.
