Last week's working group meeting on encryption has carried over to discussions on securing the network connections between the PCS corporate office and satellite offices.

Additionally, discuss some of the devices that can add security protection for the network links between the corporate and satellite offices. Include at least one research reference and associated in-text citation using APA standards. In your replies to your peers further discussing the importance of network security devices.
